Here are the nominees for the Zalando Rising Star Award 2021

For the thirteenth year in a row, the Stockholm International Film Festival nominates new acting talents for the Zalando Rising Star Award. The prize is awarded to an actor who has made outstanding achievements in film or television and has the potential to become tomorrow's big star.
 

The purpose of the award is to highlight actors early in their careers and invite them to the Stockholm Film Festival where they get the chance to make contacts in the film industry. Previous winners of the Stockholm Rising Star Award include Alicia Wikander, Filip Berg, Adam Lundgren, Alba August, Celie Sparre – and Lancelot Ncube who took home the award last year. Now it's time for a new star to be born.
