Only 12 Actors in History Managed to Get 2 Oscar Noms in 1 Year
Even if it feels a bit outdated in 2024, the Oscars is still the biggest movie award in the world, and thousands of filmmakers and actors do their best to get even a nomination.
Of course, only a select few achieve such an honor, but even among Hollywood's biggest stars there is a closed club of performers who have managed to get two nominations in the same year. And we are not talking about getting a nomination for both acting and producing, as many people do.
No, we have listed 12 actors who have received two Oscar nominations in one year for acting alone!
After reading this list, you might be shocked that Scarlett Johansson received two Oscar nominations in 2019, as this immense achievement was never properly recognized, as the star lost both her chances to win a coveted golden statuette.
However, being nominated for both lead and supporting roles sounds like an award in itself, as only a handful of performers in the modern era have managed to achieve this milestone.
It's obvious that the Academy members don't really like to give so much attention to actors and only resort to it in extreme cases, when nominating an actor for two awards at the same time is the only reasonable option to avoid pissing off his fans.
The Academy Awards 2024 are scheduled for Sunday, March 10, taking place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. The event is to start at 7 p.m. EST.
