What are the biggest snubs at the 2025 Oscars?
We’ve already mentioned Denis Villeneuve being left out of the running for Best Director. But who else surprisingly didn’t make the cut?
All told, the Oscars has gotten much better at recognizing talent across the board. Big musicals such as Wicked and more populist choices are now commonplace on the night.
