List of actors nominated for multiple Academy Awards in the same year
A dozen people have been nominated for two Academy Awards in acting categories in a single year, the first in 1938 and the most recent in 2019. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has two rules about multiple nominations: first, an actor or actress cannot receive multiple nominations for different performances in the same category (one nomination must be for a lead role, in the Best Actor/Best Actress category, and the other must be for a supporting role in the Best Supporting Actor/Best Supporting Actress category); and second, they cannot receive multiple nominations for the same performance.
