Which supporting players will have audiences talking this season?

Alicia Vikander

Alicia Vikander

Where You've Seen Them Before: Likely not. Previous work limited to regional Swedish film and TV.
Breakout Roles: "A Royal Affair" and "Anna Karenina"
Why: The talented and stunning 24-year-old Swedish actress has not one, but two breakout performances. The first is opposite Mads Mikkelsen in "A Royal Affair," Denmark's Foreign Language category submission and a possible surprise art house hit next month. The second is as Kitty in Joe Wright's gorgeous adaptation of "Anna Karenina." Next up is Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros.' "The Seventh Son" opposite Julianne Moore, Jeff Bridges, Ben Barnes and Olivia Williams. Hollywood has already discovered her, now moviegoers will get a chance this November.
