We no longer have to guess how many gold statues the cast and crew of the latest Wicked movie will collect. The sequel was one of the biggest failures when the nominations came out with no one on the ballot.
Last year’s film, directed by Jon M. Chu, received five nominations at the Golden Globes earlier this month. The Oscars honor the industry’s finest stars and films over the past 12 months. Obviously, in the eyes of those who voted, Wicked: For Good was not one of the best in that period. Two of the Wicked stars, Ariana Grande and Jonathan Bailey, are starring in a new musical.
The most talked about topic on Oscar night this year will be Sinners. The Ryan Coogler-directed horror film received a record 16 nominations. This breaks La La Land’s previous record of 14. At this year’s Golden Globes, The Sinners had seven nominations with two wins.
The Sinners star Michael B. Jordan is in the running for Best Actor at the Oscars this year, Ryan is in the running for Best Director, and the film has earned a nomination for Best Picture.
