He's playing Hearst and he's a bigish name. But Orson Welles....man, that can be a showy part if it's a big role. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has the and credit Scott Feinberg has seen Mank and he thinks it's very unlikely Dance gets nominated. @Cmasterclay I heard Welles is basically a cameo role in Mank, so I doubt the guy playing him will get nominated too.

filmlover Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Chadwick won't be nominated for Da 5 Bloods. Usually posthumous performances need to have some sort of buzz attached to them before their passing, and there was already a lot more chatter for his work in Ma Rainey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmasterclay Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I would love Clarke Peters to win. He made me nearly cry in that movie. Also, he played Lester fucking Freamon! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lorddemaxus Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Judas is very likely coming out before next year's Oscars deadline (it got submitted for the SAG awards) and Kaluuya is supposedly going for supporting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lorddemaxus Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Fuck WB and AT&T if their whole nonsense this week prevents Kaluuya from getting an Oscar nom/win. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Duncan Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 So...why is Kaluuya going supporting in this? Having seen the movie...this is his movie. He is the focus of several scenes, he has top billing, Fred Hampton is the driving factor to just about every scene. Dude's a total lead. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webslinger Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Yeah, Kaluuya is absolutely a lead in Judas and the Black Messiah. I guess it’s just following in the proud tradition of “second character mentioned in title = clearly supporting” footsteps of Casey Affleck in The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford. I’ll be happy to see him get nominated anywhere for his performance (it’s his best work to date, I think), but it does feel like cheap, blatant category fraud that he’s being shifted to supporting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfHan Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 If Odom, Kaluuya, and Murray are all nominated, I look forward to 3/5 of the category consisting of fraudulent placements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been measured and Daniel has slightly less screentime than LaKeith, so... Also, Chadwick is very likely to win in lead, so if you can get away with a Supporting placement and also improve your odds for the gold...

filmlover Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 I just watched Judas earlier and Kaluuya is co-lead with Stanfield. Those tend to be easily frauded into Supporting, especially if they feel that's their strongest chance of winning (a gamble that has paid off in recent years for Supporting winners who were really Leads like Brad Pitt, Viola Davis, Alicia Vikander, and Mahershala Ali's second trophy).
