When are the 2016 Oscars on TV? Are they streaming?
Since Titanic, Leonardo DiCaprio has been a top celeb crush and I think he totally deserves to win at the 2016 Oscars on February 28. “Mad Max: Fury Road” or “Spotlight” follows the list of the possible winners. The last time he was nominated was in 2014 for his role of Jordan Belfort in “Wolf of Wall Street”.
It is prediction time 48 hours ahead of the Award ceremony. Check out this compilation of the contenders for Best Picture from Fandango.
Best director: Usually, picture and director are in lockstep, so “Revenant’s” win at the DGA helps its director, Alejandro González Iñárritu.
More than DiCaprio’s stunning acting skills, “The Revenant” could win the Best Picture awards.
Best actress: What started out as a competitive category, featuring the likes of two-time victor Cate Blanchett (“Carol”) and the popular Jennifer Lawrence (“Joy”), has turned into Brie Larson’s to lose. The linemakers at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com have set DiCaprio as the huge betting favorite on the odds to win Best Actor at the Academy Awards on Sunday night. Any other year, this award would probably go to Mark Rylance, who gives a quietly powerful performance as a Russian agent in “Bridge of Spies”.
The Oscar for best original screenplay looks to be heading straight for Spotlight.
The Grammy-winning singer won a Golden Globe for the track alongside his writing partner Jimmy Napes.
The lack of diversity of the nominees at Sunday’s 88th Annual Academy Awards has, in part, forced Hollywood to address the problem of inclusion in film.
An unprecedented debate about race in the film industry was sparked after none of the nominees for the best actor and actress and best supporting actor and actress categories are from an ethnic minority. April Reign, creator of the #OscarsSoWhite hashtag, has called for people to join her in live-tweeting the 1999 film The Wood, starring Omar Epps and Taye Diggs and streaming on Netflix now.
The 69-year-old has carved out a place for himself in the Hollywood pantheon, but even he wouldn’t deny that the shine on his crown has been fading recently, his best roles seemingly behind him.
