'Black Panther' is the first comic book movie ever nominated in the Best Picture category.Walt Disney
The Academy Awards may not have a host to draw viewers, but this year's Oscars are set to honor popular movies such as Black Panther which may prompt audiences to tune in.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences today announced the nominations for the 91st annual Academy Awards. Leading the list are critically-acclaimed period comedy The Favourite and Netflix coming-of-age drama Roma, which scored 10 nods apiece. Roma marks the streaming service's first ever Best Picture nomination and is a show of power for streaming: It has an official box office tally of zero dollars.
Close behind is Bradley Cooper's directorial debut, A Star Is Born, which earned eight nominations including Best Actor for Cooper and Best Actress for pop star Lady Gaga. Blockbuster smash hit Black Panther nabbed seven nominations, including Best Picture, making it the first comic book adaptation to be nominated in the category and one of the top-grossing movie to ever earn a nod in it.
This year's Oscars have already been some of the messiest in the show's lengthy history. First, the Academy received backlash after it announced a new "popular film" category, which it backtracked after the concept was criticized for sidelining Black Panther. Then the Oscars lost its host, comedian Kevin Hart, who dropped out after a series of homophobic tweets were discovered. The show remains without a host.
ABC will broadcast the 91st Annual Academy Awards ceremony live on Sunday, Feb. 24.
