Jessie Buckley may have lost out on an Oscar but friends say her nomination alone is enough to prove she is destined for greater things.

The actress was nominated for her role in the 2021 psychological Netflix drama The Lost Daughter, which is based on the 2006 Elena Ferrante novel of the same name.
