The Academy Awards Noms Are In: Nothing For DEADPOOL, But SUICIDE SQUAD Is Now An Oscar Nominated Movie
Yes, David Ayer's supervillain team-up flick can now officially be referred to as "The Academy Award Nominated Suicide Squad." Click on for a full list of the nominees in all major categories...
After getting some attention from several other big awards bodies, we all felt Deadpool might be in with a slim chance of some Oscar love, but alas it wasn't to be. However, the likes of Doctor Strange and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story did pick up some technical nods, and Suicide Squad was nominated in the Best Hair and Makeup category.
Aside from that it was a fairly predictable affair (La La Land landing a total of 14 nominations) but some CBM faves such as Viggo Mortensen (Lord of The Rings), Ruth Negga (Preacher), Viola Davis (Suicide Squad) and Mahershala Ali (Luke Cage) got some well-deserved recognition. Denis Villeneuve's Arrival also had a good showing, but surprisingly there was no Best Actress nom for Amy Adams.
