Cynthia Erivo Lands Best Actress Nomination

Presented by John Cho and Issa Rae Monday (Jan 13), this year’s list of nominees for the 92nd Academy Awards are pretty bland, to say the least. As predicted, 1917 racked up seven nominations including Best Picture while Adam Driver and Antonio Banderas earned nods for their respected roles in Marriage Story and Pain and Glory.

Cynthia Erivo landed her first Oscar nomination for her riveting role in Harriet and could become the youngest EGOT winner in the process. Erivo is also the 11th black actress to be nominated for a leading role at the Oscars in the ceremony’s 92-year history and the only woman of color nominated in the acting categories this year.

The snubbed list for this year’s Oscars is a long one. Jennifer Lopez (Hustlers) Lupita Nyong’o (Us), Beyonce (The Lion King: The Gift), Alfre Woodard (Clemency), Jamie Foxx (Just Mercy) Eddie Murphy (Dolemite Is My Name) and Awkwafina (The Farewell) were all shut out this year, making #OscarsSoWhite an understatement.

However, Ervio and Matthew Cherry’s nomination for Hair Love in the Short Animated Film category gives us some hope that the academy respects good work.

Final voting for the awards doesn’t start until January 30. The process reportedly lasts six days, a notion Gold Derby points out as the shortest time for balloting in the history of the ceremony.

The Academy Awards will air without a host on February 9.
