"It's A Shame": Denis Villeneuve Believes Amy Adams Was Snubbed An Oscar Nomination For His 2016 Sci-Fi Movie

Amy Adams as Louise smiling against backdrop of alien legs and language in Arrival

Director Denis Villeneuve recently shared his disappointment over Amy Adams' lack of Oscar recognition for her role in his 2016 sci-fi drama, Arrival. The film, which became widely acclaimed for its unique take on extraterrestrial encounters, follows linguist Dr. Louise Banks as she decodes an alien language in a tense race to prevent a global catastrophe. Arrival scored rave reviews and eight Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture and Best Director for Villeneuve.

She made it look effortless, and it’s a shame the Academy didn’t recognize that.&#x2715 Remove Ads Close Villeneuve's comments bring attention to an ongoing issue in Adams' career, which is that, despite being one of the most respected actors of her generation, she has yet to secure an Academy Award win.
