Brazilian actor Wagner Moura and the film "O Agente Secreto," directed by Kleber Mendonça Filho, have been included in Variety magazine's list of potential contenders for the 2026 Academy Awards. Moura is considered a possible nominee in the Best Actor category, while the film is listed among potential candidates for Best International Feature Film. "O Agente Secreto" previously won two awards at the Cannes Film Festival, where Moura received the Best Actor prize. However, Moura was only able to physically receive the award six weeks later during the Cinéma Paradiso Louvre Festival in Paris. The award was presented to him by Juliette Binoche, the Jury President of the 2025 Cannes Film Festival. The film is scheduled for release in Brazil on November 6, 2025. This recognition follows Brazil's notable presence at the Oscars in 2025 with Fernanda Torres and the film "Ainda Estou Aqui."
