Netflix leads Oscar nominations, with 'The Irishman' and 'Marriage Story'
After coming up short at the Golden Globes, can Netflix translate awards nominations to wins this time? That will be the big question in the entertainment industry over the next several weeks as the streamer campaigns for its Oscar nominees.
In a sign that the entertainment industry is living through strange times, Netflix earned two animated feature nominations , while Disney earned just one . Additionally, Netflix’s bounty includes two feature documentaries and one documentary short .The tech company’s total is by far its biggest showing in terms of Oscar nominations, coming off a year when Netflix spent heavily to become a bona fide Hollywood studio.
Sony Pictures had a big year with 20 nominations, thanks to critically acclaimed films including “Once Upon a Time ... in Hollywood,” the Quentin Tarantino movie that is in contention for 10 awards, including best picture, director, lead actor and supporting actor. Greta Gerwig’s adaptation of “Little Women” and Pedro Almodóvar’s “Pain and Glory” boosted Culver City-based Sony’s haul.
Santa Monica-based Lionsgate’s multiple nominations include three for “Bombshell,” the Fox News sexual harassment drama the company picked up from Annapurna Pictures, which dropped the project. Lionsgate’s total includes an original screenplay recognition for Rian Johnson’s “Knives Out,” in addition to two for Roadside Attractions’ Judy Garland biopic “Judy.”
