The Shape of Water up for 13 Oscars

‘The Shape of Water’ leads this year’s Academy Awards with 13 nominations.

Guillermo del Toro’s romantic creature feature is up for a host of top Oscars, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Actress for Sally Hawkins and Best Supporting Actor for Richard Jenkins.

‘The Shape of Water’ goes head-to-head against the coming-of-age drama ‘Call Me By Your Name’, ‘Darkest Hour’, ‘Dunkirk’, ‘Get Out’, ‘Lady Bird’, ‘Phantom Thread’, ‘The Post’ and ‘Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri’ in the prestigious Best Picture category.

Del Toro – who won the Best Director at the Golden Globes this year – will have to beat the likes of Paul Thomas Anderson, Greta Gerwig, Christopher Nolan and Jordan Peele to much coveted Best Director accolade.

Gary Oldman has been nominated for Best Actor for his role as World War II British Prime Minister Winston Churchill in ‘Darkest Hour’ alongside Timothee Chalamet for ‘Call Me By Your Name’, Daniel Day-Lewis for his final film ‘Phantom Thread’, Daniel Kaluuya for ‘Get Out’ and Denzel Washington for ‘Roman J. Israel, Esq’.

For Best Actress, Hawkins goes up against Frances McDormand for ‘Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri’, Margot Robbie for her portrayal of disgraced figure skater Tonya Harding in ‘I, Tonya’, ‘Lady Bird’ star Saoirse Ronan and ‘The Post’ star Meryl Streep.

‘Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri’ received nine nominations including two nods in the Best Supporting Actor list going to Woody Harrelson and Sam Rockwell – who won the award at the Golden Globes.

Nolan’s Second World War epic ‘Dunkirk’ received seven nods.

Sir Ridley Scott’s John Paul Getty biopic ‘All The Money in the World’ lost out to a Best Picture nomination but Christopher Plummer, who stars as the millionaire, has been tipped for Best Supporting Actor.

The nominations were announced on Tuesday (23.01.18) by Tiffany Haddish and Andy Serkis following an announcement by Academy president John Bailey.

For this year’s ceremony, Jimmy Kimmel is returning to host the Academy Awards which are set to take place at the Dolby Theatre, in Hollywood, on Sunday March 4.

Margot Robbie and husband Tom Ackerley never fight

Margot Robbie and her husband Tom Ackerley never fight.

The ‘Suicide Squad’ actress married her beau, 28, just over a year ago in her native Australia but, although their demanding careers pull them apart for months at a time, she’s adamant their household is "pretty chilled" because they never get into conflict.

Speaking to Whimn, she said: "We don’t really fight. I know that sounds weird but we are not people who like conflict. We don’t need to yell at each other to know that we love each other. So, it’s pretty chilled in our house. We get along really well."

The couple – who used to live in London together – moved to Los Angeles, California, last year but the 27-year-old beauty has admitted she misses Queensland because she hasn’t been back to her home country since they secretly tied the knot in 2016.

She said recently: "[LA] is where I am currently residing; it’s difficult to grow roots here. I guess being married changed things. It’s the longest I have ever gone being away from home and it’s killing me. To be away during those things sucks. But even the small things suck. Like, I miss Burger Rings, I miss Nutri-Grain! I can’t wait to go back."

It comes after Margot recently described her fame as "bittersweet", as although she finds it "difficult" to be away from her family so much, the long distance between her work and her home means she can make sure to separate the two parts of her life.

She said: "It’s bittersweet living outside of Australia, because I miss everyone so much, but the fact that they are so removed from it helps me keep my life and my work separate – even though they are intrinsically linked, because all I want to do is work."

Margot Robbie wants to be a fire twirler

Margot Robbie wants to become a master fire twirler.

The 27-year-old Australian actress can currently be seen in biographical drama ‘I, Tonya’, in which she plays real-life disgraced US Olympic figure skater Tonya Harding, a role for which she had to learn how to ice skate proficiently.

Margot wants a new hobby and is determined to find time to learn how to manipulate fire after being mesmerized by fire twirlers whilst on vacation in the Philippines.

She said: "I recently bought fire-twirling poles, because I really want to get good at it. When I was backpacking in the Philippines, there were heaps of fire twirlers on the beach, and it was so cool. I was like, Wow, I really want to do that!’ "

Margot – who is married Tom Ackerley – has become one of the most in-demand actresses and has three movies set for release in 2018, including period drama ‘Mary Queen of Scots’ in which she plays ‘Queen Elizabeth I’.

The blonde screen starlet – who was catapulted to global fame by her performance in ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’ – can still remember when she got her first pay check when she moved to New York City and the pride she felt.

Speaking to the US issue of ELLE magazine, she shared: "When I got to New York for the first time, I took my first pay check, walked straight into Tiffany’s on Fifth Avenue, and bought an airplane charm that goes on my bracelet. It was the best feeling ever. I got my little blue box, and I got it for myself."

Big Little Lies, Shape of Water lead Critics’ Choice Award winners

‘Big Little Lies’ and ‘The Shape of Water’ were the big winners at the Critics’ Choice Awards on Thursday (01.11.18), picking up four prizes each.

The HBO drama scooped the Best Limited Series award, while there were also gongs for its stars Nicole Kidman, who was named Best Actress in a Movie Made for TV or Limited Series, Alexander Skarsgard and Laura Dern, who picked up Best Supporting Actor and Actress in a Movie Made for TV or Limited Series respectively.

The 50-year-old actress thanked her children – Isabella, 25, and Conor, 22, with ex-husband Tom Cruise, and Sunday, nine, and six-year-old Faith with spouse Keith Urban – in her speech, after previously coming under fire for not acknowledging her older kids in other awards acceptances.

She said: "I want to thank all of my children who show me so much love.

"I love being an actor. Thank you for letting me do it all the way through to this age and beyond. It really is an incredible honour.

"Every actor in this room knows you are only as good as the other actors you work with."

Meanwhile, ‘The Shape of Water’ was named Best Picture, while Guillermo del Toro scooped Best Director for his work on the movie, and it also received recognition for its score and production design.

The director was joined on stage at the Barker Hanger in Santa Monica by the movie’s stars Sally Hawkins and Octavia Spencer, as well as screenwriter Vanessa Taylor, as he picked up the award.

He said: "For everyone that has been unequal in working with women, let me show you who stands here with us and made this movie possible.

"Let me tell you one thing: you don’t know what you’re missing."

In the other big movie categories, ‘Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri’ took the Best Ensemble prize, while Frances McDormand and Sam Rockwell were awarded Best Actress and Best Supporting Actor.

Gary Oldman was named Best Actor for his portrayal of Winston Churchill in ‘Darkest Hour’, while Best Supporting Actress went to ‘Allison Janney’ for ‘I, Tonya’.

Her co-star Margot Robbie picked up Best Actress in a Comedy, while the Best Actor in a Comedy accolade went to ‘The Disaster Artist’ star James Franco.

However, in the wake of an article accusing him of sexual misconduct, the 39-year-old star didn’t attend the ceremony.

In the TV categories, ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ scooped three honours, including Best Drama Series, and Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for Elisabeth Moss and Ann Dowd.

Margot Robbie ‘lost her mind’ on I, Tonya

Margot Robbie "lost [her] mind" shooting ‘I, Tonya’.

The 27-year-old actress immersed herself so deeply in playing disgraced skater Tonya Harding, she forgot where the character ended and in scenes opposite Sebastian Stan as her abusive husband Jeff Gillooly, she "genuinely thought" their arguments were real.

In an interview with Grazia magazine, she admitted: "I had lost my mind. I genuinely thought we were these people and we were off the set, running down the street screaming at each other and the cameras are running after us. I think I was screaming something about needing to go to hospital because my hand was broken.

"It wasn’t, but I was so caught up in the moment. And Sebastian was like, ‘Margot, where are you going?’ He went to pick me up because I was continuing to tear down off set and I turned and punched him in the head."

The incident only stopped when the crew cut filming, and though they were "scared" by her behavior, she found it "exhilarating".

She said: "A few times I’ve genuinely thought I wasn’t on set and that I was that character in that time and in that place. To truly forget there’s a camera in your face is really hard. When it does happen, it’s really exhilarating. I don’t know if it’s because you’re so tired when you’re filming you’re almost delusional."

During filming, Margot lost all feeling in her arm and had to undergo weekly MRI scans which showed she had injured her neck.

She said: "I don’t think [the numb arm] was connected to the skating.

"[I had the scans] to make sure we weren’t doing any real damage. I herniated a disc in my neck."

‘I, Tonya’ documents one of the most infamous scandals in sporting history as it follows the true story of Tonya and her husband when they plotted to attack her rival Nancy Kerrigan before the US Figure Skating Championships in 1994.

The conniving couple secretly hired a thug to break Nancy’s leg so that she had no choice but to pull out of the then-upcoming Winter Olympics but, despite her injuries, the pair went on to compete against one another in highly publicized sporting event. Nancy remarkably won the silver medal in the Games and, after details of the crime – known as The Whack Heard Round the World due to the fact she was clubbed around the knee with a baton – came to light, Tonya was dished out a sporting lifetime ban.

Her husband Jeff, on the other hand, was handed a two-year prison sentence.

Margot Robbie’s pals worried she’ll ‘burn out’

Margot Robbie’s friends are worried she’s going to "burn out".

The ‘I, Tonya’ star – who runs her own production company, LuckyChap Entertainment, with husband Tom Ackerley – feels "lucky" to have been given so many great career opportunities, so tries to embrace as many as she can, despite pleas to slow down.

She said: "Things are crazy right now. I’ve done four films this year. More than I’ve ever done.

"People are like, ‘You should slow down, you’re gonna burn out.

"But I’, so lucky that I get to work all the time.

"It seems too good to be true to have s many opportunities. I couldn’t possible say no to anything so I try to do everything and see where it takes me.

But the 27-year-old actress admitted her "insane" schedule is leaving her "exhausted", though she wouldn’t have it any other way.

She added to Grazia magazine: "It’s insane and I’m exhausted but I’m so happy and grateful."

And if Margot has her way, she’s only going to get busier.

She said: "I don’t need sleep. I want to direct and produce in the future. I want to keep the ball rolling."

The ‘Suicide Squad’ actress insists she’s had to push herself hard to stop her being typecast from her breakthrough role as Naomi Lapaglia in ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’

She said: "After ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’, I knew I had to adjust people’s expectations of what I could do as an actress. I was being offered the gold-digging wife.

"I really just started searching for roles that scared me a little.

"If I read the script and thought, ‘I don’t know if I could pull that off’ then I knew those were the roles I had to fight for."

Gary Oldman receives Leading Actor BAFTA nomination

Gary Oldman has been nominated for the Leading Actor gong at this year’s BAFTA Film Awards.

The London-born star has been named alongside Daniel Day Lewis (‘Phantom Thread’), Daniel Kaluuya (‘Get Out’), Jamie Bell (‘Film Stars Don’t Die in Liverpool’) and Timothee Chalamet (‘Call Me By Your Name’) on the list of nominees for the coveted award, which is to be decided at the Royal Albert Hall on February 18.

Oldman, 59, has received the nomination for his stellar performance in the Joe Wright-directed history movie ‘Darkest Hour’, in which he stars as Britain’s war-time Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill.

Oldman’s latest nomination for the Leading Actor award – which follows earlier nods for his performance in ‘Prick Up Your Ears’ in 1988 and 2012’s ‘Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy’ – is sure to increase speculation over a possible first-ever Academy Award for the acclaimed actor.

The BAFTA Film Awards are often seen as a good indicator as to potential Academy Award winners, with this year’s ceremony being staged on March 4.

Elsewhere, the Leading Actress list features Hollywood star Annette Bening for ‘Film Stars Don’t Die in Liverpool’, Frances McDormand for ‘Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri’, Margot Robbie for ‘I, Tonya’, Saoirse Ronan for ‘Lady Bird’ and Sally Hawkins for ‘The Shape of Water’.

In total, ‘The Shape of Water’ has received nods in 12 categories for this year’s ceremony, including Director, Leading Actress and Original Screenplay.

Guillermo del Toro won a Golden Globe on Sunday (01.07.18) for Best Director of a Motion Picture for his unusual creature feature.

But the 53-year-old Mexican will face stiff competition from ‘Blade Runner 2049’ helmer Denis Villeneuve, ‘Call Me By Your Name’ director Luca Guadagnino, ‘Dunkirk’ filmmaker Christopher Nolan and ‘Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri’ mastermind Martin McDonagh.

It has been confirmed, too, that British actress Joanna Lumley is to replace Stephen Fry as the host of this year’s BAFTA Film Awards.

Lumley, 71, will become the first female host since Mariella Frostrup co-presented with Fry back in 2001.

She said: "Honestly, how exciting is this? It’s just so unbelievably thrilling. Who thought I’d turn into Stephen Fry?

"I want to thank Bafta so much for asking me to do this. I said yes indecently quickly."

Margot Robbie has security bills to pay

Margot Robbie needs to make blockbuster movies to pay her security bills.

The ‘I, Tonya’ star advised aspiring actresses to "take into consideration" the cost of staying thoroughly protected from potential stalkers, admitting she can’t solely make independent films because of her "lifestyle".

She explained to the Hollywood Reporter: "There’s just all this stuff you learn along the way, like, when you get those death threats, it’s [smart] to have a security team do a background check on whoever sent them to see if there is any past history of violence because you’ll need to know whether you need security to go to certain events.

"And every time you do a background check, it’s going to cost $2,000, so take that into consideration when you’re getting yourself into this.

"And it’s like, ‘OK, that’s a different kind of career.’ Because then you need to always do a job that can financially support that lifestyle; you can’t just do indie films for the rest of your life because that film back there changed everything and now you have to be able to afford security."

The 27-year-old actress – who is married to Tom Ackerley – admitted she "resented" security costs having to be a factor in her career decision making and wished someone had warned her of the disadvantages of being such a successful movie star.

She added: "I just wish someone had explained a lot of those things to me early on. I wouldn’t have resented the position I found myself in because I would’ve known what I was getting myself into."

The ‘Wolf of Wall Street’ star is thankful she’s not been a victim of sexual misconduct in Hollywood, but was still "shocked" when she was asked if she’d ever been molested during a press conference.

She said: "I was shocked by the indifference to which this man asked, like it was such a casual question and that’s part of the problem, too. No one’s ever abused their power with me within this industry, but I am a woman in the world and I have seen and dealt with this a million times in the world.’ "

Margot Robbie pledges support to anti-harassment campaign

Margot Robbie has thrown her support behind a new anti-harassment campaign.

The 27-year-old actress has become the latest big-name celebrity to pledge her support to Time’s Up by sharing an image on her Instagram account of an open letter written in the New York Times newspaper that calls on women to share their own experiences of harassment.

Alongside the screenshot, Margot wrote: "To my sisters (from all industries) Time’s up on silence. Time’s up on waiting. Time’s up on tolerating discrimination, harassment and abuse. #TimesUp Sign the solidarity letter & donate to the @TIMESUPNOW Legal Defense Fund: Link in bio. (sic)"

The campaign was launched by 300 well-known actresses and other figures within the movie industry, including the likes of Jennifer Lawrence and Meryl Streep.

The initiative also features a legal defence fund worth as much as $13 million, which is designed to help those women who do not have the finances to defend themselves.

The Australian actress previously came out in support of the women who have spoken about the sexual harassment they’ve experienced in Hollywood.

Margot – who has starred in movies such as ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’ and ‘I, Tonya’ – said: "Women are so resilient and I think the response to the whole Weinstein situation kind of proved that.

"Because it’s astounding how quickly everyone pivoted from being heartbroken about the news to, how do we move forward?"

The sexual harassment scandal erupted last year following a string of accusations made against Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein.

And Margot previously admitted she felt proud to be a woman because of the subsequent bravery shown by those people who came forward to share their stories.

She explained: "Everyone was so supportive immediately and then automatically looking to the future, which made me even more proud to be a woman."
