Satellite Award For Best Supporting Actor - Motion Picture Resource | Learn About, Share and Discuss Satellite Award For Best Supporting Actor

The Satellite Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture is one of the annual Satellite Awards given by the International Press Academy. In 2011, the IPA pared down its Satellite nominations in the motion picture categories from 22 to 19 classifications; the change reflects the merger of drama and comedy under a general Best Picture heading, including the Best Actor/Actress headings and the Supporting headings.^[1]
