Oscars 2021 Black nominees and firsts.
Awards season is here. As celebrities continue to ride high following their Grammy wins Sunday night, quite a few have another reason to celebrate because the Oscar 2021 nominees have just been announced.
The team behind Judas and the Black Messiah racked up. Not only did the film score nominations in several different categories, but they made history as the first all-Black-men led film to score a nomination in the Best Picture category. And they’re not the only ones we’re celebrating today.
Two Black women directors made the nominations list as well: Time's Garrett Bradley for Best Documentary Feature and A Love Song for Latasha's Sophia Nahli Allison for Best Documentary (Short).
Here are all of the nominees for the 93rd Academy Awards, which will air April 25 on ABC.
