Why not Lo Cascio 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 57-year-old actor, as a 2025 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Lo Cascio so important is the potential and influence he now has, rather than anything he has already done,” said a panelist who preferred to remain anonymous, adding that earlier this month, the actor have already been named ‘Italian Of The Year’ by some major Italian newspapers and even ‘Palermo Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Palermo (Luigi Lo Cascio's hometown).
Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year
A representative for the actor was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:
“Luigi Lo Cascio Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”

“Congrats! Luigi has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”

“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Luigi Lo Cascio?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 22 Dec 2024
Could 2025 officially be the Year of Luigi Lo Cascio?
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?
