The 2020 Oscar Nominations Are Here & As Issa Rae Said, “Congratulations To Those Men”
Another day, another early morning for Hollywood's finest. The 2020 Oscar nominations were announced on Monday, Jan. 13, bright and early, and, for many movie lovers, they did not disappoint. The nominations were read out by stars Issa Rae and John Cho, who, unfortunately, will not be hosting this year's event. The 92nd Oscars will be hostless, but, never fear, if the nominations are anything to go by, the award show will be just as packed with content as always.
Of course, no Oscar nominations are without a few upsets. The 2020 Oscar nominations included huge wins for Joker, The Irishman, and Jojo Rabbit, but zero nominations for Hustlers and The Farewell, despite the two receiving praise and nominations from other award shows, including the Golden Globes and the Screen Actors Guild Awards, both considered good indicators of the Academy Awards. Meanwhile women were completely shut out of the Directing category, with Little Women's Greta Gerwig missing out, despite earning a nod for Best Adapted Screenplay and a Best Picture nomination.
That said, it wasn't all bad. Parasite made Oscar history as the first South Korean film ever nominated for Best International Film, and picked up nominations for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay as well.
Here's a full list of the 2020 Oscar nominations, so you can know exactly what to celebrate, and what to rant about to your coworkers.
