The Platino Award for Best Actress (Spanish: Premio Platino a la mejor actriz/Premio Platino a la mejor interpretación femenina) is one of the Platino Awards, Ibero-America's film awards presented annually by the Entidad de Gestión de Derechos de los Productores Audiovisuales (EGEDA) and the Federación Iberoamericana de Productores Cinematográficos y Audiovisuales (FIPCA).

History

It was first awarded in 2014, with Chilean actress Paulina García being the first recipient of the award, for her role as Gloria Cumplido in Gloria. Until the 7th edition in 2020, female supporting performances were included in this category. In 2021, the category for Best Supporting Actress was created.

Laia Costa became the first and only actress to win this award consecutively in 2023 and 2024 for Lullaby and Un amor, respectively. Penélope Cruz and Antonia Zegers hold the record for the most nominations in this category, each with three nods. Following closely behind are Paulina García, Laura de la Uz, Natalia Oreiro, Ilse Salas, Emma Suárez, Dolores Fonzi, and Laia Costa, each with two nominations.

Spain holds the record of most wins in the category with three of the eight winners being Spanish actresses, followed by Argentina, Brazil, and Chile, each with two wins. 2022 nominee Penélope Cruz also received a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actress for Parallel Mothers.
