OSCAR NOMS GO TO
BILLIE, BEYONCÉ

Beyoncé, Billie Eilish and Van Morrison received Academy Award noms this morning in the Best Original Song category. Lin-Manuel Miranda has the opportunity to EGOT.

Eilish and FINNEAS are looking for a hat trick with their James Bond theme, “No Time to Die,” which has already won a Grammy and a Golden Globe.

Beyoncé, whose awards could fill a hangar, received her first Oscar nomination, for “Be Alive” from King Richard, the biopic on the father of Venus and Serena Williams. Morrison, too, is a first-time nominee, for “Down to Joy” from Belfast.

On the other end of the spectrum is Diane Warren, who now has 13 noms without a win. Her “Somehow You Do” from Four Good Days marks the fifth straight year in which she is nominated in the category.

If EGOT contender Miranda wins for “Dos Oruguitas” from Disney’s Encanto, he will add an Oscar to his trophy case to go along with his two Emmys, three Grammys and three Tonys.

The Best Original Score nominees are Nicholas Britell (Don’t Look Up); Hans Zimmer (Dune); Germaine Franco (Encanto); Alberto Iglesias (Parallel Mothers); and Jonny Greenwood (The Power of the Dog).

Questlove’s Summer of Soul (…Or, When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised) is among the Best Documentary nominees.

Most notable among the noms was Jane Campion's becoming the first woman to receive a second nomination for her directorial work. Her superb entry The Power of the Dog led all films with 12 nominations.

Here’s the full list. The 2022 Academy Awards ceremony will take place 3/27 at Hollywood's Dolby Theatre and will be broadcast live on ABC.
