Jodie Comer has been nominated for a Tony Award
The 30-year-old star has been nominated in the Best Performance by an Actress category for her performance in 'Prima Facie'.
Jodie made her Broadway debut in the one-woman play earlier this year, and she's now been named among the nominees for the accolade alongside Jessica Chastain ('A Doll's House'), Jessica Hecht ('Summer, 1976') and Audra McDonald ('Ohio State Murders').
The acclaimed actress previously performed the show in London's West End and Jodie won a Laurence Olivier Award earlier this year.
Elsewhere, Josh Groban has been named among the nominees for the Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Musical award.
The Hollywood star has been nominated for his performance in 'Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street'.
However, Josh will face competition for the award from Christian Borle ('Some Like It Hot'), J. Harrison Ghee ('Some Like It Hot'), Brian d’Arcy James ('Into the Woods'), Ben Platt ('Parade') and Colton Ryan ('New York, New York').
Meanwhile, Samuel L. Jackson is another big-name nominee for this year's Tony Awards.
The 74-year-old star is among the contenders for the award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Featured Role in a Play.
The Hollywood icon has been nominated for his performance in 'The Piano Lesson' and he'll compete for the gong against the likes of Jordan E. Cooper ('Ain’t No Mo'), Arian Moayed ('A Doll’s House'), Brandon Uranowitz ('Leopoldstadt') and David Zayas ('Cost of Living').
The list of nominees were announced on Tuesday (02.05.23) by Lea Michele and Myles Frost.
The awards take place in New York City on June 11 and will be hosted by Oscar-winning actress Ariana DeBose.
