2018 Oscar Nominations: Three Billboards, Shape of Water & More
Heading into the Oscar nominations, Martin McDonagh’s Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri was a front-runner in the major awards categories following its victories at the 2018 Golden Globes and SAG Awards. Three Billboards lead actress Frances McDormand and supporting actor Sam Rockwell are likewise at the head of the pack, where they are joined by Gary Oldman for Darkest Hour and Allison Janney for I, Tonya in the respective best actor and supporting actress categories.
All four performers have now been nominated for their efforts by the Academy, and McDonagh secured an Oscar nomination for his writing while being passed over for a Best Director nomination for Three Billboards. Awards season frontrunners Call Me By Your Name and The Shape of Water also successfully racked up multiple nominations and shouldn’t be counted out of the Best Picture race. The Shape of Water cowriter and director Guillermo del Toro even won at the Golden Globes for his direction on the film, making him a frontrunner to win at the Oscars too.
Jordan Peele and Greta Gerwig were both nominated for original writing and directing on Get Out and Lady Bird (their respective solo directing debuts), and Christopher Nolan finally added a Best Director nomination to his list of Oscar nods for Dunkirk.
Mudbound cinematographer Rachel Morrison made history by becoming the first woman ever nominated for a Best Cinematography Oscar, as did Mudbound costar Mary J. Blige with her nominations in both supporting actress and original song for the same year, and Meryl Streep with her nod for The Post (her 21st acting Oscar nomination overall). Hugh Jackman’s swan song as Wolverine took home a writing nod, but Logan was otherwise shutout of the Academy Awards nominees, along with its fellow superhero movie Wonder Woman.
