Netflix will campaign the entire principal cast of *La Bola Negra* in supporting acting categories, rather than promoting a single lead. The decision reflects the ensemble’s shared importance across three time periods and strengthens the film’s awards positioning after its Spanish Oscar selection and Toronto audience award.

The cast includes Guitarricadelafuente, Miguel Bernardeau, Carlos González, Milo Quifes, Penélope Cruz, Lola Dueñas and Glenn Close. Guitarricadelafuente and Cruz are viewed as the strongest acting contenders, while he may also receive an original song nomination; Netflix will give the film a record 47-day theatrical window and report its box-office takings.
