The Power Of The Dog, Dune lead the complete list of nominees for the 2022 Oscars
Other big contenders include Flee, Coda, Licorice Pizza, and West Side Story
This morning the Academy Of Motion Picture Arts And Sciences unveiled the nominees for this year’s Oscar awards. The films that pulled in the most nominations are Jane Campion’s The Power Of The Dog with 12 nominations and Denis Villeneuve’s Dune with 10 nominations. Belfast and West Side Story both scored 7 nominations each.
The 10 films nominated for Best Picture category are: Belfast, Coda, Don’t Look Up, Dune, Licorice Pizza, The Power Of The Dog, Drive My Car, King Richard, Nightmare Alley, and West Side Story.
Some pleasant surprises come in the acting categories, with Jessie Buckley receiving a nomination for her supporting performance in Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Lost Daughter; Olivia Colman was nominated in the Best Actress category for the same film.
Additionally, Kristen Stewart has received a first-time nomination in the lead actress category for her performance as Princess Diana in Pablo Larrain’s Spencer (That’s right, it’s now Oscar-nominated actor Kristen Stewart to you).
In one of the few nominations for Joel Coen’s adaptation of The Tragedy Of Macbeth, Denzel Washington has received a Best Actor nomination for his lead performance.
With Jane Campion’s nomination in the Best Director category, she becomes the only woman to be nominated twice in Oscars history. She previously nominated for best director with her 1993 film The Piano, and won the award for original screenplay that year.
The animated documentary Flee continues to garner acclaim with its nominations this morning. The Riz Ahmed-produced feature has broken a strange record by nabbing nominations in the Best Animated Feature, Best Documentary Feature, and Best International Feature categories, making it the first film to do so.
The 94th annual Academy Awards will be on March 27 at Hollywood’s Dolby Theatre with a live telecast on ABC. For the first time in three years, the Oscars will have a host in 2022. However, host has been announced yet.
