Jennifer Lopez was SNUBBED, while ScarJo got two Oscar nominations this morning (via toofab)
Though many were pulling for Jennifer Lopez to earn her first Oscar nomination ever for her work in "Hustlers," she was surprisingly left off the Best Actress list. Scarlett Johansson, meanwhile, picked up two nominations -- one for her work in "Jojo Rabbit" and another, Lead Actress, for "Marriage Story."
Overall, "Little Women" performed well -- picking up nominations for Saoirse Ronan and Florence Pugh's performances and Greta Gerwig's screenplay, among others. Notable, however, was the lack of Directing nom for Gerwig. Issa Rae shaded the academy for the lack of female directors after reading the noms, saying, "Congratulations to those men."
Other shockers included no love for Adam Sandler or his movie, "Uncut Gems," Taron Egerton failing to get nominated for "Rocketman" after Rami Malek won for another musical biopic, "Bohemian Rhapsody," the year before and Lupita Nyong'o getting ignored for her dual role in "Us." Awkwafina and "The Farewell" were also totally snubbed.
"Joker" came out with the most nominations overall, including Best Picture, Directing and Actor for Joaquin Phoenix. Close behind were "The Irishman," "1917" and "Once Upon a Time ... In Hollywood" with 10 noms each. "Jojo Rabbit," "Little Women," "Marriage Story" and "Parasite" all had a solid showing with 6 each.
Watch the announcement livestream below. The trophies will be handed out on Sunday, February 9 at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, beginning at 8pm ET on ABC.
