Scarlett Johansson slams Oscars for snubbing 'Avengers: Endgame' for Best Picture and calls out lengthy award shows

Scarlett Johansson has once again voiced her frustration over the Oscars overlooking Avengers: Endgame for the Best Picture category. The actress, known for portraying Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, expressed her disbelief during an interview. She questioned how a film as groundbreaking and successful as Endgame managed to receive only one nomination, for visual effects, at the 2020 Academy Awards.

“It was an impossible movie that shouldn’t have worked, yet it did, both as a film and as a cultural moment,” Johansson remarked. She pointed out that the film not only pushed creative boundaries but also became one of the highest-grossing movies of all time. Despite its global impact and critical acclaim, Endgame remained absent from major Oscar categories, including Best Picture.

Lois Lane confronts Superman as Lex Luthor invades the Fortress in the new trailer for James Gunn’s 'Superman'

James Gunn’s Superman is shaping up to be more than just another cape-and-costume affair. The latest trailer doesn’t just show off epic battles or a parade of DC heroes; instead, it throws us straight into a tense one-on-one between the Man of Steel and the woman who refuses to let him off the hook.

In this new version, Clark Kent, played by David Corenswet, is already known to Lois Lane as Superman. There’s no awkward glasses game here, just straight talk! And Lois isn’t starstruck. She’s sharp, sceptical, and not afraid to press him on the ethics of playing global policeman. Her questions about his involvement in a foreign conflict cut through the usual superhero fanfare. Was he saving lives, or stepping over a line?

In his debut UK show – and first international performance – Indian stand-up comedian Shamik Chakrabarti took to the stage at Soho Theatre, London, with a deceptively low-key presence that quickly revealed a sharp wit beneath his ‘sensible nerd’ exterior.

The aptly titled Despite Appearances saw the bespectacled comic defy expectations. His softly spoken, academic demeanour gave way to punchlines filled with sly irony, sarcasm and culturally specific references that regularly caught the audience off guard.
