US actor Tom Cruise arrives in a helicopter to the world premiere of “Top Gun: Maverick!” aboard the USS Midway in San Diego, California. AFPPIX: The Oscar nominations for a year in which the big-screen box office finally bounced back from the pandemic will be unveiled Tuesday, with Academy voters expected to reward blockbusters such as “Top Gun: Maverick” for helping to save movie theaters.
Other films firmly on the radar of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences voters are Irish black comedy “The Banshees of Inisherin,“ Baz Luhrmann’s rock-and-roll biopic “Elvis,“ and Cate Blanchett’s latest tour-de-force “Tar.”“I probably have put more effort into talking to Academy members to try to gauge their interest and see where the race is headed than in any other year in my life,“ he told AFP.
Germany’s World War I drama “All Quiet on the Western Front” has built major momentum, scooping a massive 14 nods last week for Britain’s BAFTAs. “No shade to the movie they did choose, which is actually very good, but ‘RRR’ was a slam dunk,“ said Davis.In the individual categories, Brendan Fraser , Colin Farrell and Austin Butler are clear favorites to score best actor nominations.
Her co-star Ke Huy Quan -- who appeared as a child in “Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom” almost four decades ago -- is likely to cement a remarkable comeback with a nod for best supporting actor.
