Top 20 Oscar snubs of actors and actresses: Jennifer Lopez, Jamie Foxx, Awkwafina, Eddie Murphy …

Our predictions for the 2020 Oscar nominations proved to be pretty accurate. Upwards of 80% of those that we tipped to hear their names called are indeed among those contending for the 92nd annual Academy Awards. But we feel bad that we encouraged some famous folk to set their alarms early on Monday morning, only to find out that they did not number among the nominees.

Six SAG Awards nominated performers won’t be in contention at the Oscars: leads  Christian Bale (“Ford v Ferrari”), Taron Egerton (“Rocketman”) and Lupita Nyong’o (“Us”) as well as supporting players Jamie Foxx (“Just Mercy”), Jennifer Lopez (“Hustlers”) and  Nicole Kidman (“Bombshell”).

Scroll down for our list of the top 20 biggest snubs, and check out the full list of the 92nd annual Academy Awards nominees.
