Oscars 2018: Full list of nominees
Hot on the heels of the SAG Awards and the Golden Globes, the Oscar nominations have been revealed and there's plenty to be excited about at this year's show on March 4. Host Jimmy Kimmel will have the audience in stitches as films like Lady Bird, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, The Post, Get Out and The Shape of Water vie for top honours!
Lady Bird filmmaker Greta Gerwig joined an exclusive club of women who have been nominated for Best Director (Think: Sofia Coppola and Jane Campion), garnering the first female nod in eight years. Rachel Morrison, Mudbound's cinematographer, made history by receiving the first-ever nomination in the category for woman.
Soirse Ronan stars in Lady Bird
On the Canadian front, Christopher Plummer is representing the true north with a Best Supporting Actor nomination for All The Money In The World. Canadians also feature in the Film Editing (Sidney Wolinsky), Costume Design (Luis M. Sequeira) and Production Design (Paul Austerberry) categories.
Conspicuously absent from the nominations was James Franco, whose awards season has been mired by numerous sexual assault allegations made against the star of The Disaster Artist.
Frances McDormand makes her mark in Three Billboards
The Shape of Water leads the nominations with 13, just one shy of beating the record secured by both Titanic and last year's La La Land. Three Billboards' lead actress Frances McDormand has already taken the SAG and Golden Globe, so making a trifecta of her awards season haul wouldn't be a stretch. She's up against first-timer Margot Robbie, who took on the role of Tonya Harding in I, Tonya and 23-year-old three-time nominee Soirse Ronan of Lady Bird.
Two more new faces on the list are Daniel Kaluuya of Get Out, Jordan Peele's racially charged horror film, and Call Me By Your Name's Timothée Chalamet. The duo's debut sees them facing off against veterans Gary Oldman, Daniel-Day Lewis and Denzel Washington.
Daniel Kaluuya is put through hell in Get Out
And it wouldn't be the Oscars without mention of Meryl Streep. The acclaimed actress received her staggering 21st nomination for The Post and come awards night hopes to add a fourth trophy to her over-flowing mantel of accolades.
