Why not Carter for Person of the Year?
The list of nominees for Time magazine’s Person of the Year is always an eclectic mix of world leaders, pop culture icons, buzzworthy names, and human rights activists. The unexpected inclusion of the 58-year-old actress, as a 2025 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Carter so important is the potential and influence she now has, rather than anything she has already done,” said a panelist who preferred to remain anonymous, adding that earlier this month, the actress have already been named ‘Briton Of The Year’ by some major British newspapers and even ‘London Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in London (Helena Bonham Carter's hometown).
Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year
A representative for the actress was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:
“#CarterPOY. Logical choice though I wouldn't have made the same one.”

“Congrats! Helena Bonham has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”
— @SamanthaJones, 26 Dec 2024
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Helena Bonham Carter?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 26 Dec 2024
Could 2025 officially be the Year of Helena Bonham Carter?
Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2025 Person of the Year.
Who do you think should be TIME’s Person of the Year for 2025?
