With 11 feature films and 17 television series competing for awards, the race for best actor/actress this year promises to be fierce, with many films even having multiple nominations at the same time.
Internal competition in the actress category
In the list of nominees for the category of Best Actress in a Feature Film just announced by the organizing committee, besides a series of veteran names, there are also many talented young faces.
Among the veteran names, People's Artist Kim Xuan received much attention for her role as Madame Ha Phuong in Bloody Happiness. According to the crew, the 67-year-old artist did not hesitate to perform the scene of falling 20 times, or was willing to soak in the swamp in the extremely cold weather of Da Lat at that time.
Lan Ngoc and Kaity Nguyen compete in the female acting category.
The duo, who have been nominated and honored many times, Ninh Duong Lan Ngoc and Kaity Nguyen, will continue to compete for the highest position when they both have impressive performances in The Girl from the Past.
Transforming into a mother and daughter in a family of three generations, "wherever the mother puts her, the child sits", actresses Le Giang and Huynh Uyen An (film Mrs. Nu's House) will also compete together.
This two-horse race also took place in 3 movies: Sister Sister 2, Very Good Squad and Ten: The Curse Returns.
In Sister Sister 2, Minh Hang and Ngoc Trinh will continue to compete with each other. Le Khanh and her junior Hoang Oanh (The Very Good Team) are also on the nomination list. Two potential actors Chi Pu and Rima Thanh Vy (Ten: The Curse Returns) also won a spot in this year's fierce race.
Minh Hang and Ngoc Trinh will also continue to compete.
Equally noteworthy, the only Vietnamese film to reach a revenue of hundreds of billions in 2022 - Em va Trinh also has 3 names, 3 rookies nominated: Hoang Ha, Bui Lan Huong and Akari Nakatani.
In the female category, Thu Trang's important role (Con Nhót nhớt chồng) or Le Phuong's completely new image (Vong nhi) also helped them get nominated.
State-run and independent art films also introduced promising faces. They are Nguyen Hai Yen (Memento Mori: Land), Phuong Anh Dao and Juliet Bao Ngoc Doling (Glorious Ashes); Thuc Anh (Rose Squad); Tang Huynh Nhu (Exposure); Nguyen Phuong Cham, Dao Nhat Vy and Duong Thi Nhung (film 9).
Actor Category: Competitive Pressure
In both film and television, the Best Actor category is a race of familiar faces. Notably, many people appear in multiple projects at the same time.
In the film industry, in addition to being the highest-grossing Vietnamese film of all time, Mrs. Nu's House also brought Tran Thanh and Song Luan acting nominations for male actors.
The super funny duo - Anh Tu and Mac Van Khoa are also nominated for male acting.
Similarly, Anh Tu and Mac Van Khoa are also a notable pair when they both appeared in Super cheat meets super mud. Le Xuan Tien and Lanh Thanh will also join the race this year with two deep roles in The girl from the past.
Although his comeback in the very modest Biet Doi was very good, Hua Vi Van was also a notable name. Besides, we cannot help but mention the potential rookie Avin Lu with his transformation into a musician named Trinh in Em va Trinh.
In the field of television dramas, the intensity is pushed up when the actors have many impressive roles. That is Nhan Phuc Vinh with 3 roles - 3 different colors in Mother's Dream, Don't Make Mother Angry and Are You a Man?
Competing with Nhan Phuc Vinh is his co-star in Don’t Make Me Angry – Binh An. In addition, he also had a breakthrough role in Happy Garage.
Nhan Phuc Vinh had 3 notable roles last year.
Manh Truong and Dinh Tu (Don't Say When You Love) or Anh Vu and Manh Hung (Under the Shade of a Happy Tree) are all roles that have received much attention from the audience in the past year. We also cannot fail to mention a very familiar face on VTV3 prime time - Thanh Son with the image of a police officer in Dau Tri or Viet Anh in Hanh Trinh Cong Ly.
A very familiar face to the southern small screen audience, Luong The Thanh, is also expected to transform into a kind, gentle guy who runs a homestay tourism business and overcomes difficulties to develop Vietnamese sand painting art in Mau Cat.
The 2023 Kite Awards Ceremony will take place on the evening of September 9 at That Theater (Nha Trang).
