女一号即第一女主角,而女主角的英文有:
heroine, the leading actress, female lead
而奥斯卡奖项中最佳女主角为actress in a leading role(相对的,最佳女配角为actress in a supporting role),这种说法也可以借鉴;
同时,我还注意到中国本土电影里,比如最近的非2中男主角和女主角就翻译为starring actor and actress,也可以学习下子。
总结来讲,可以选用的说法有:heroine, the leading actress, female lead;actress in a leading role;starring actress,希望能帮到你。 ^o^
