"Shape of Water" leads 90th Academy Awards nominees


"The Shape of Water" has a total of 13 nominations at this year's Oscars.

24 Jan – The nominees for the 90th Academy Awards have been revealed at the Academy's Samuel Goldwyn Theater, with Tiffany Haddish and Andy Serkis as well as Academy president John Bailey making the announcement.

Leading the pack is Guillermo del Toro's sci-fi fantasy romance, "The Shape of Water", which garnered 13 nominations in total, including in the Best Picture, Best Actress and Directing categories.

Tagging behind is "Dunkirk", Christopher Nolan's World War II movie, with its eight nominations including in the Directing, Cinematography and Best Picture categories.


"Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri", the big winner at both the 75th Golden Globes Awards and the 24th SAG Awards, may repeat its success at this year's Oscars as it managed to snag seven nominations in total.

Jordan Peele's "Get Out", garnering four nominations, is one of the few horror movies that have been nominated at one of Hollywood's most prestigious awards ceremonies.

Meanwhile, Denzel Washington, who was nominated for "Fences" last year, gets another Best Actor nomination this year, this time for "Roman J. Israel, Esq". Meryl Streep, nominated for "Florence Foster Jenkins" last year, also gets a consecutive Best Actress nomination, this time for "The Post".

This year's Oscars also see positive changes such as opening the doors to Netflix movies and forgoing actors and movies that have been involved in sexual harassment scandals.

Taking place at 5pm PST on 4 March at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California, the 2018 Oscars will once again be hosted by Jimmy Kimmel (who, in a recent promo, claims that he is still haunted by the envelope blunder at the previous Oscars).
