2020 #OscarNoms: 'Joker' leads the Oscars with 11 Academy Award nominations!

The 92nd Academy Awards ceremony, presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, will honor the best films of 2019 and will take place at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California.

Joaquin Phoenix has been nominated several times for an Academy Award and he’s once again in the running for his portrayal of the Joker in Todd Phillips’ Joker.

The film has been nominated for 11 different Oscar nominations for the 2020 Academy Awards, more than any other film. It’s truly a dark horse this year—superhero (or super-villain, as the case may be) movies aren’t usually such Oscar darlings. Joker is one of nine films up for “Best Picture” this year.

Martin Scorsese’s mob epic “The Irishman,” Quentin Tarantino’s ode to Los Angeles “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” and Sam Mendes’ war drama “1917” followed close behind with 10 nods a piece. Those films, along with “Ford v Ferrari,” “Jojo Rabbit,” “Little Women,” “Marriage Story” and “Parasite” will compete for best picture. Female filmmakers were entirely shut out of the best director race. Along with Phillips, the nominees include Scorsese for “The Irishman,” Mendes for “1917,” Tarantino for “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” and Bong Joon Ho for “Parasite.”

The Academy Awards will air live Feb. 9 on ABC.
