Naomie Harris
Naomie Harris is nominated in the Best Supporting Actress category for playing Paula, the drug-addicted mother of Moonlight’s central character. This British actress may have gotten her start on "Simon and the Witch," a British TV show for children, but she's more well-known for her big screen roles such as zombie apocalypse survivor Selena in 28 Days Later, voodoo witch Tia Dalma in the Pirates of the Caribbean films, South African activist and politician Winnie Mandela in Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom, and secretary extraordinaire Miss Moneypenny in the recent James Bond films. Harris can next be seen in 2018 in Rampage, a film adaptation of the classic video game of the same name, and Jungle Book, another film adaptation of the beloved story of Mowgli.
