Any chance Ben Affleck gets a best actor nomination with all of these films being cancelled or delayed? He’s been getting raves for The Way Back but usually a March release is a kiss of death

I think a more likely scenario is Judi Dench, Isla Fisher, Dan Stevens, and/or Leslie Mann getting nominated for Blithe Spirit if it’s good enough, considering its release date was just pushed back to the fall, unlike The Way Back.

If a nomination ends up in reach, then Dench, Stevens, and Mann would probably campaign lead and Fisher supporting.

There’s no way in hell that the big studios are going sit there and take it as the big film festivals are cancelled. If it comes to that, there will certainly be alternative means for their films to be screened in advance for the critics.

Weinstein wanted Jennifer Aniston dead after learning about a National Enquirer report claiming that he had sexually assaulted her back in 2005.

https://pagesix.com/2020/03/10/harvey-weinstein-suggested-jennifer-aniston-should-be-killed-over-sex-assault-claim/

 

Weinstein also kept a “red flag list” of people who he suspected were ratting him out. Among the people on that list was Ben Affleck.

Trailer is out. And I don’t know what to say.

The dialogue makes it clear that this is going to be a very different take on the original story. Diehard fans of the original are probably going to hate it with a passion going into the theater, so it’ll have to be undeniably good to have widespread success with the critics, much less have any chance of major awards recognition.

I’m gonna list actors who haven’t already been mentioned by previous users.

1. Jodie Comer. Once she’s done with Killing Eve, she’s probably gonna have an Oscar within the next 5-10 years. She, along with Florence Pugh, are once-in-a-generation type of talents who have all the stars aligned for them to not just win one Oscar, but perhaps two or more.

2. Song Kang-Ho. After the success of Parasite, an Oscar nomination at least is inevitable for him. He just needs the right role. And it doesn’t have to be in English, because non-English performances have won Oscars several times before.

3. Robert Pattinson. You need a special kind of talent to pull off something like what he did in The Lighthouse. He’ll get one eventually.

4. Zoe Kravitz. She was one of the five leads in Big Little Lies. Do I need to explain more? Dern, Kidman, and Witherspoon are already Oscar-winners. Woodley hasn’t been nominated yet, but has already been mentioned by another user. So I’ll list Kravitz.

5. Isla Fisher. LLLHawks is dying on a hill for Michael Pena; I’ll do the same for Isla Fisher. I find her to be in some ways a female equivalent to Adam Sandler. Mostly known for comedic work, but also more than capable of giving intense performances in dramatic productions (see Home and Away; Definitely, Maybe; and Nocturnal Animals). Ironically, she was actually the original choice for Idina Menzel’s role for Uncut Gems, but for some reason it didn’t work out. If she does get a nomination/win, I can see it for one of two types of performances: (1) An ultra-dramatic performance where she goes completely against type; or (2) A supporting role [perhaps in a coming-of-age drama] where she serves as a mentor/mother figure to the main protagonist.

Who are the men with double wins. Without looking it up I’m saying Jack Lemmon, Jack Nicholson, Denzel, and Gene Hackman.

You left out Robert Di Niro and Kevin Spacey.
