It’s the big day – the 2016 Oscar nominations have been revealed during a two-part news conference.
The event, which takes place on Sunday 28 February in Hollywood and will be hosted by Chris Rock host the awards, saying “it’s great to be back.”
Leonardo DiCaprio is one step closer to getting an Oscar statue for his mantle, but he’ll be going up against last year’s best male, Eddie Redmayne.
Leo’s movie The Revenant is leading the race with 12 nominations, and The Big Short, Brooklyn, Spotlight and The Martian also have nods.
We’re getting deja-vu after last year’s Selma snub, with #OscarsSoWhite trending on Twitter – this year’s shocker is the lack of black actor/actress nominations.
Idris Elba, Will Smith and Michael B Jordan were all potential best actor nominees. Plus, Straight Outta Compton was denied a best picture nomination.
It was widely believed that Will Smith would receive a nod for his role in Concussion, Idris Elba and Michael B. Jordan for Creed.
Plus, there are NO female directors in the Best Director category.
