Sandra Huller has four movies being released in 2026 and she’s seemingly going to be in awards contention for all of them.
The 48-year-old German actress continued her Oscar buzz at the premiere of her film Fatherland at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival on Thursday (May 14) in Cannes, France.
Sandra is earning rave reviews for her performance in the movie, which got a 5-minute standing ovation from the festival audience.
What is Fatherland about?
Fatherland is written and directed by Pawel Pawlikowski, best known for 2013’s Ida and 2018’s Cold War, both of which earned him Oscar nominations.
FATHERLAND centres on the relationship between the Nobel Prize-winning writer Thomas Mann and his daughter Erika, actress, writer and rally driver. In the summer of 1949, at the height of the Cold War, father and daughter embark on a challenging and emotional road trip in a black Buick taking them across a Germany in ruins – from US dominated Frankfurt to Soviet controlled Weimar. Returning home after sixteen years of exile in the US, Thomas Mann has to face not only a divided fatherland, but also deep fracture within his own family.
Sandra Huller has four movies coming out this year!
You already saw her in the smash hit movie Project Hail Mary, which has Sandra leading the predictions for Best Supporting Actress.
