This morning, the Oscar nominations were released for this year.
A variety of nominations were received by Disney films, but one nomination caught our eye as being especially notable. One was given posthumously to Chadwick Boseman.
Chadwick Boseman, the actor well-known for playing Black Panther in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, has been posthumously nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor for his performance in Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom.
The film was Boseman’s final movie before he passed away last August as a result of late-stage colon cancer.
Boseman has been honored with other posthumous awards as well including being named one of the “Greatest Entertainers of the Year” by Entertainment Weekly.
Other nominees in the Best Actor category include Riz Ahmed in Sound of Metal, Anthony Hopkins in The Father, Gary Oldman in Mank, and Steven Yeun in Minari. As always, keep an eye on AllEars for all of the latest Disney news and updates.
