Greta Gerwig has become the fifth woman to be nominated for best director...
From the editors of InStyle
The count down to the Oscars is seriously on as the nominations for the 90th Academy Awards were revealed in LA today by 2017’s queen of sass, Girls Trip star, Tiffany Haddish and all-round special effects god, Andy Serkis.
The film leading the nomination tally for the Oscars 2018 is The Shape of Water with its star, British Actress Sally Hawkins, heading the film’s award season charge with her Actress in a Leading Role nod. The ‘other-wordly’ production leads with thirteen nominations in total.
Other Brits of note include Gary Oldman who is almost a dead cert to take home the Oscar for Leading Actor for his epic portrayal of Winston Churchill in The Darkest Hour. His wins at the Golden Globes and the SAG awards place the brother of ‘Big Mo off Eastenders’ in pole position.
Other films making a big splash – quite literally – are Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk with eight nominations and the dead cert for the Leading Actress category, Frances McDormand leads Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri into the ceremony with seven nominations.
Greta Gerwig becomes the fifth woman in Academy Awards history to be nominated for Best Director, the first in eight years with her teenage tale, Lady Bird.
