She is assumed to be the first Filipina to receive a nomination in the Golden Globe Awards. Before her, Darren Criss became the first Filipino-American actor to be nominated and awarded with a Golden Globe when he won Best Performance by an Actor in a Limited Series in 2019.

Aside from the Golden Globes, Dolly de Leon was also nominated for Best Actress in a Supporting Role at the 27th Satellite Awards and for Best Supporting Actress and Best Breakthrough Performance at the 4th DiscussingFilm Critic Awards.

“Para sa ‘tin ‘to”

Following the Golden Globe announcement, de Leon issued a short statement about her wins and nominations:

“It’s an honor and a privilege to be recognized by critics who think outside the box and recognize the artistry of film-making. I’m proud to represent every individual who is struggling in their chosen industry — much like Abigail. Every single soul who’s watched the film would know what I’m talking about. If you haven’t, go out and find out. It’s still in cinemas [in the Philippines]. PARA SA ‘TIN ‘TO.”
