Strike 2 for GOT as Lena Headey bows out early. Kevin Costner fans (like me) might be a bit surprised that he failed to get past Cameron Diaz. Carey Mulligan benefits from the casting vote rule and we had some abstentions thrown in too. Once again none of these 8 were nominated more than once.
Results -
Shirley MacLaine 7 v 4 Andie McDowell
Michelle Yeoh 5 v
6 Carey Mulligan*
Kevin Costner 4 v
7 Cameron Diaz
Michael Shannon 6 v 4 Lena Headey

Michael Caine - In 2016, at age 83, he finally changed his legal name from Maurice Micklewhite to Michael Caine. He said this was because he was fed up being delayed in airport security by staff who did not understand why the name on his passport did not match the person they recognised.
