When you have 20 nominations - 20 names on the nomination list of best actor, supporting actor and actress, etc., and there's absolutely no representation of color whatsoever, I think that's a subset of perhaps a bigger problem.

Tony Cardenas

Rarely was a distinction deserves as the Oscar for best supporting actor, who went to the late Heath Ledger. His 'Joker' is really incredible.

Bastian Schweinsteiger

I did a short film called 'Disco' and won an award for Best Supporting Actor at an indie film festival, and that was nice. Hopefully there's lots more to come.

Charlie Rowe

I don't like talking about myself. I'm not really interested in myself. One of the good things about being a supporting actor is that you get to talk about other people.

David Morse

I don't want to be just considered a breakout comedic supporting actor. I want to be a breakout actor in anything that's a lead.

Donald Faison

I'm not a wealthy person because I was never a star. I was a working actor and a supporting actor.

Ed Begley, Jr.

If you're a lead actor, people are just waiting to say 'you're too old' or 'you're too unhip.' If you're a supporting actor, you can just work forever.

Gilbert Gottfried

The trademark Joseph Abboud style is the man first and the clothes second. The guy's the star. Everything else is a supporting actor.

Joseph Abboud

It's my job as a supporting actor - which I usually am - to support the film: to make 1, 2, or 3 on the call sheet look good.

Judy Greer

Its rare to see a proud and out LGBT person win an Oscar in a lead or supporting actor role.

Karamo Brown

When I played Robin Hood, I knew the great role was Alan Rickman's and it didn't bother me. I always think that leading actors should be called the best supporting actors.

Kevin Costner

If I was offered the choice of an award for best actor or best supporting actor, I would go for supporting actor.

Liam Cunningham

Supporting actors are the support. You can't make a building without support. You can't buy dinner without support.

Melissa Leo

I'm a great company actor, a great supporting actor. I serve the piece.

Noma Dumezweni

I'm awkward at these things. Just being nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for Karate Kid was a real surprise and I was a little uncomfortable.

Pat Morita

I don't consider myself a very interesting person. I have the mentality of a supporting actor.

Paul Giamatti

I have the mentality of a supporting actor.

Paul Giamatti

Honestly, I never wanted to be more than a good supporting actor. Really, I enjoy it.

Paul Giamatti

My name had been sent for the award for Best Supporting Actor in 'Tere Naam,' but I missed it.

Ravi Kishan

You need supporting actors to help to tell the story. For me, I'm lucky to be a part of the films. Being an actor, I'll take any role, whether it's supporting or leading.

Robert Maillet

I'm much more open to being a supporting actor right now. At the age of 60, I'll be second fiddle. Fine. I'm happy to do it.

Robin Williams
