Taylor Swift could win an Oscar for film directing in 2023

Taylor Swift she already has 11 Grammys and an Emmy to her name, but she could potentially be adding an Oscar to her award collection next year.

The ‘I’d Lie’ singer directed the short film to accompany the release of her ten-minute song ‘All Too Well’ last November on Red (Taylor’s Version). The film stars Dylan O’Brien and Sadie Sink.

The eligibility window for best live-action short is different from that for feature films — anything released from October 1, 2021, to September 30 2022 can be nominated.

Though this is Swift’s first short film, she has directed six of her own music videos in the past, including those for ‘cardigan’, ‘The Man’, and ‘ME!’.

If everything goes her way, Swift could even walk home with two Oscars at next year’s ceremony. In June, the singer wrote and recorded the track ‘Carolina’ to accompany the film Where The Crawdads Sing. As it’s the first song to appear in the movie’s credit sequence, it’s eligible to be nominated for Best Original Song.
