At the inaugural Academy Awards in 1929, native Pennsylvanian Janet Gaynor made history as the first American-born performer to win an Oscar by taking the Best Actress prize for her body of work in “7th Heaven,” “Street Angel,” and “Sunrise.” Over the subsequent 95 years, 215 more thespians originating from the United States won the academy’s favor, meaning the country has now produced 68.1% of all individual acting Oscar recipients. Considering the last decade alone, the rate of such winners is even higher, at 70.3%.
At this point, 96.8% of American-born acting Oscar victors have hailed from one of 34 actual states. Of those constituting the remainder, three originated from the federal District of Columbia, while four were born in the territory of Puerto Rico. New York (home to 49 winners) is the most common birth state among the entire group, followed by California (34), Illinois (13), Massachusetts (11), and Pennsylvania (11).

As shown by an MCU fan on Reddit, every MCU movie released so far features at least one Oscar winner, except for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. Robert Downey Jr.'s 2024 Oscar win retroactively gives Avengers: Age of Ultron its only Academy Award winner. The MCU continues to attract top-tier actors, with upcoming Phase 5 projects featuring Oscar-nominated performers such as Hugh Jackman, Harrison Ford, Florence Pugh, and Mahershala Ali.
A surprising MCU statistic shows the impressive amount of A-list talent Marvel Studios has amassed throughout the years, revealing how every movie in the franchise has had at least one Oscar winner, except for one Phase 5 installment.

The tenth film in the franchise saw many of the star cast from over the years return to their roles, blowing up the budget beyond what the producers had anticipated.

After The Marvels' failure at the box office, Brie Larson's Carol Danvers needs to see redemption in a potential Captain Marvel 3. Captain Marvel 3 could include the formation of the McU's A-Force team, helping to rectify Avengers: Endgame's disappointing fan service sequence. Captain Marvel's new A-Force team could include powerful female heroes such as Photon, She-Hulk, Yelena Belova, the Mighty Thor and the new Black Panther.
Although there's been no confirmation of its development, Captain Marvel 3 could provide Brie Larson with the perfect opportunity to redeem her powerful MCU superhero, and solve a major problem that dates back to 2019's Avengers: Endgame. Brie Larson debuted as Carol Danvers, a.k.a. Captain Marvel, in 2019's eponymous Captain Marvel, after her connection to Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury was teased in Avengers: Infinity War.

A whopping 26 (or 70.3%) of the last decade’s worth of acting Oscar recipients – including 2024’s Emma Stone (“Poor Things”), Robert Downey Jr. (“Oppenheimer”), and Da’Vine Joy Randolph (“The Holdovers”) – were born in the United States. Also counted here is Joaquin Phoenix, who originates from the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico. Compared to the group of performers who prevailed between 2005 and 2014, the 2015-2024 set includes six more Americans, constituting a 16% larger majority. Considering all 96 years of Academy Awards history, the rate of unique American acting victors stands at 68.1%.
Stone, who earned her first of two Best Actress trophies for “La La Land” (2017), is now the first-ever dual honoree from Arizona, with the only other acting winner from her state being Troy Kotsur. Before they came along, the sole nominee to have been born there was Mare Winningham, who lost to New Yorker Mira Sorvino (“Mighty Aphrodite”).

In "Masters of the Air" episode 8, Rosenthal compares Crosby to DC's Captain Marvel, not Marvel's superhero. The reference is to Shazam, who was originally known as Captain Marvel in the comics. The episode centers around Crosby missing D-Day due to his exhaustion.
Masters of the Air episode 8 includes a reference to Captain Marvel, but the miniseries isn't alluding to the Marvel Comics character. The 2024 Apple TV+ war drama, created by John Shiban and John Orloff and produced by Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg, centers around the actions of the 100th Bomb Group, a United States Air Force unit, in England during World War II. The nine-episode television event features an ensemble cast, with other characters more prominent than others. But the Captain Marvel name-drop occurs during a scene between Anthony Boyle's Lt.

Fast X chased Fast Five nostalgia but failed to live up to its quality. Fast X lacked the organic setting and focused story that made Fast Five successful. Fast X's attempt to do too much with a massive cast and budget led to disappointment.
Fast X referenced Fast Five several times, but the latest Fast and Furious movie could not surpass the quality and impact of the 2011 film. Before Fast Five, the Fast and Furious franchise was still trying to decide what it was going to be. 2 Fast 2 Furious tried to continue the series without Vin Diesel’s Dominic Toretto, whereas Tokyo Drift followed a new protagonist entirely.

The Marvels redeems itself by topping streaming charts despite a lackluster theatrical performance and negative critic reviews. Featuring Captain Marvel teaming up with Ms. Marvel and Monica Rambeau, the film still managed to win over audiences. Arrival on Disney+ garnered 558 million minutes watched in its first week, surpassing expectations and proving its appeal.
The Marvels continues to push back against its reputation as the biggest flop of the MCU by dominating the streaming charts and soaring to the #1 spot. The film smashed through the competition offered up by Netflix to give Disney+ a huge win for the week of February 5 to February 11. Certainly an achievement worth shouting about for the film that was slammed by critics and ended its theatrical run as the worst performing Marvel Cinematic Universe movie ever.

With Oscar season on the horizon, many looked back on one of the ceremony’s most memorable moments, which was the Oscars Selfie that talk show host Ellen DeGeneres took in 2014. The selfie featured A-listers such as Brad Pitt, Meryl Streep, Changing Tatum, Bradley Cooper, Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Lawrence, Jared Leto, and Lupita Nyong’o. It was often regarded as one of the most memorable selfies ever taken.

However, ever since the selfie was taken, the lives of these A-listers seem to have gone off the rails. A recent article by the New York Post opined that the ‘Oscar Selfie Curse’ was a real thing and that most of the actors present in the selfie have either been canceled, faced career setbacks, or have had disastrous personal lives. Fans, however, are annoyed with this narrative and are not buying into the Oscar Curse.

The late global sensation Michael Jackson is getting his own musical drama biopic (currently in the works) almost a decade and a half after his death, but even his fans don’t seem to be all too optimistic about it. If anything, fans are more or less expecting the film titled Michael to be doomed just like the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s The Marvels.

All of this comes after recent reports about the film from insiders, who have stated the reported budget and box office projections of the film. And as much as fans would hate to admit it, the biopic Michael is making the very same mistake that doomed Brie Larson’s 2023 superhero sequel to Captain Marvel: Absurdly overinflated budget and box office projections.

Most times, the Oscars broadcast goes off without a hitch. But other times, things happen that leave people talking about it for years — or even decades — to come. While surprises have been happening since before the Oscars were even broadcast — much less before the boom of social media — The Hollywood Reporter takes a look at the biggest viral moments from the last 10 years. Hollywood won’t forget about the streaker or Jennifer Lawrence tripping up the stairs, but those moments happened before 2014.

John Travolta was set to introduce Idina Menzel before she took the stage to sing “Let It Go” from the Oscar-winning film Frozen. Somehow, he botched her entire name and introduced her as the “wickedly talented, one and only, Adele Dazeem.” Not only did it spark countless memes, but the singer-actress later said it was one of the best things that happened for her career.

Dakota Johnson’s Madame Web has been extremely disappointing for Marvel fans. Ever since its release, there has been considerable criticism of the film. However, the one thing that has stayed consistent is a lack of interest from a majority of fans. The negative conversation around the film has become so great that it cannot be brushed past during the film’s press tour.
Dakota Johnson, Sydney Sweeney and Isabel Merced
Almost the entire cast of the film has spoken out about the poor performance in some way or the other. Johnson, on the other hand, has been very vocal. A recent comment by her about the film’s failure has caused many to praise her.

The perennial discussion surrounding DC versus Marvel has traversed numerous peaks and valleys over the years. DC Animation has consistently held sway as a superior force compared to Marvel. On the other hand, the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has garnered immense popularity, consistently winning over the hearts of audiences worldwide.
However, the tides appear to be shifting, marking a potential turning point in the ongoing debate.

The film industry is no stranger to massive budgets. Blockbusters like Avengers: Endgame and Jurassic World have made it abundantly clear that spending hundreds of millions of dollars on a single movie is often regarded as the norm. Nevertheless, Denis Villeneuve’s latest flick, Dune 2, is shaking things up by proving that it’s possible to create masterpieces with a massive budget (on a $190 m budget).
The film, despite having strong female characters, has established itself as a box office winner. Contrary to popular belief, that the importance of female characters leads to the downfall of a movie, Dune 2 has proved itself to be an engaging cinematic masterpiece.

From then on, not every project garnered acclaim from the public, leading many to get disappointed with what they were being served. The Marvels is an example that was a great disaster at the box office, leaving many to wonder about its future.

The Marvels movie was released in November 2023 and didn’t receive a great response from critics and fans alike. It was the third Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) movie of 2023 after Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania and Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3 were released. The Nia DaCosta directorial stars Brie Larson, Samuel L Jackson, Iman Vellani, Teyonah Parris, Zawe Ashton, Lashana Lynch, Park Seo-joon, and others.
The superhero film brought together Carol Danvers (Brie Larson) and a grown-up Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parrish) after Captain Marvel (2019). Even Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) joins the force to fight against a new space villain, Dar-Benn (Zawe Ashton). Despite all of this, The Marvels failed to impress the audience. However, what got everyone’s attention was the post-credits scene.
In The Marvels’ post-credit scene, Monica gets pushed into another universe. She meets her mom, Maria Rambeau, at the hospital.

Thunderbolts' original ending would have repeated a divisive MCU death involving an original Avenger, but Marvel wisely made a change. Yelena Belova's character, set to be the next Black Widow, is a fan favorite and deserves more time to grow in the MCU. As the MCU looks to pass the torch to a new generation of heroes, Yelena is a perfect candidate due to her likability and star power.
The Thunderbolts' reported original ending was recently revealed, and it would have repeated another divisive MCU death that involved an original Avenger. Thunderbolts was confirmed to be in development in 2022, with Kevin Feige revealing the all-star cast that would form the team. The team is similar to DC's Suicide Squad, where a group of Marvel anti-heroes go on a dangerous mission that requires unorthodox methods. Unlike the Suicide Squad, they aren't under threat of death if they refuse, but there is...

For anyone wondering about the impact of airing the 30th annual Screen Actors Guild exclusively on Netflix, only a cursory glance is needed at the The Hollywood Reporter/Launchmetrics Red Carpet Power Rankings resulting from the event. Earned exposure at the SAG Award for many luxury brands — and the stars who wore them — saw a significant drop from previous 2024 awards shows.
Netflix has not released specific viewership data for the SAG Awards, but the show is not included in the streaming giant’s Global Top 10 TV list for the week of Feb. 19 to Feb. 25; with The Tourist: Season 1 at the No. 10 position (garnering only 2.1 million views), it’s a sure bet viewership of the SAG Awards doesn’t approach that figure. By contrast, the 66th annual Grammy Awards attracted an average of 17.09 million viewers during the Feb. 4 broadcast (on both CBS and Paramount+) and represented a double-digit increase over the previous year.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has just about the perfect cast for each and every comic book character they have brought to life. Yet that does not mean that the ‘perfect actors’ would want to continue playing their roles forever (clue Dave Bautista as Drax) and for someone like Brie Larson, who delivered Marvel’s first true bomb in years, the actress must certainly be looking to move outside the realms of the MCU.
