Amanda Seyfried may have another awards-season moment on her hands, but her road to a potential Oscar nomination is already getting complicated.
The actress is launching an awards campaign for You Can See Everything, the documentary about Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes, in which Seyfried returns to play Holmes in re-enactment scenes.
The film follows Holmes during the final month before she went to prison, after she allowed filmmakers Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim to document her life.

The result is a nearly three-hour documentary that has become one of the year’s biggest talking points.
Seyfried has already collected an Emmy, a Golden Globe and a Critics Choice Award for portraying Holmes in Hulu’s The Dropout. But this time, not every awards body is rolling out the red carpet.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Golden Globes won’t consider her for Best Supporting Actress, apparently because the ceremony does not recognise documentaries.
She’s also ineligible at the Actor Awards, despite SAG-AFTRA reportedly encouraging A24 to “file a formal appeal.” The studio has no plans to do so, according to the report.
The BAFTAs have also ruled her out, although no reason was given.
That leaves two potential stops on her awards-season journey: the Oscars and Critics Choice Awards.
Seyfried remains eligible for Best Supporting Actress at both, with A24 reportedly “focusing” on an Oscar nomination.

A Critics Choice win would also give her a chance to make history, having already won the award for playing Holmes.
