Strong's nomination for his role as Roy Cohn in The Apprentice faces challenges due to mixed reviews of the film, despite Strong's portrayal being one of the year's highlights. In a strong category featuring performances by Guy Pearce and Edward Norton, Strong may struggle to secure a win despite his talent.
