Nominations for the 9 nd Academy Awards were announced Monday morning.
The dark comic drama “Joker” led among nominated films.
Other artists who were nominated include; Scarlet Johansson who was nominated in categories (best actress and best-supporting actress), Cynthia Erivo who was also nominated in two awards (Best actress and original song for “Stand Up”).
However despite efforts to diversify the Academy women were shut out of the best director category.
