Despite a highly competitive awards season, The Testament of Ann Lee might not receive nominations in many top Oscar categories. However, it could still be recognized for its technical achievements in areas like costume design, production design, and sound. Meanwhile, Seyfried remains a potential Best Actress nominee for next year, alongside Jessie Buckley and Cynthia Erivo.
