So, both Joker and Avengers: Endgame have been shortlisted for best Original Score. Joker is also shortlisted for the best Makeup and Hairstyling category. And both the Disney MCU movies of this year, Captain Marvel & Avengers: Endgame have been shortlisted in the Best Visual Effects Category as well. If these films end up getting nominated and subsequently winning in these categories, then they’d be joining Marvel’s Black Panther (won the Best Original Score Oscar) and DC’s Suicide Squad (won Best Makeup and Hairstyling Oscar).
Comic Book Movies had a huge presence at the 91st Academy Awards as both Black Panther & Avengers: Infinity War bagged nominations. It would be great to see the same happen in the 92nd Academy Awards as well. Let’s see what happens.
