In November 2025, Expresso interviewed Brazilian actor Wagner Moura, a Golden Globe winner and Oscar nominee for Best Actor for his role in “The Secret Agent”. On the eve of Hollywood's big night, we revisit a conversation about culture, humanity, and cinema.

Brazilian actor-director Wagner Moura will present the play 'Um Julgamento' in Lisbon, with only three scheduled performances.
Nominated for Best Picture, International Feature Film, Casting and Actor (Wagner Moura), 'O Agente Secreto' has a chance to repeat or improve on the result of 'Ainda Estou Aqui'. There is also a fifth Brazilian nominee at the Oscars.

Wagner Moura and the film 'The Secret Agent' are nominated in three major categories and for the first new Oscars category in 25 years, following the success of 'I'm Still Here' at last year's Oscars. 'Sentimental Value', 'Marty Supreme', 'Sinners' and 'Battle After Battle' have gathered numerous nominations.

The 49-year-old actor is the lead in “The Secret Agent”, the film directed by Kleber Mendonça Filho, which has already triumphed at the Golden Globes and is now nominated for four Oscars, including Best Picture.

Directed by Kleber Mendonça Filho, the film — which won Best Non-English Language Film and Best Actor (Wagner Moura) — is receiving additional screenings at cinemas across Portugal.
