2025 Oscars: Snubs and Controversy Spark Debate

The 2025 Oscars have sparked significant controversy due to the complete snubbing of the film 'Challengers', notably its original score by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, despite winning Best Original Score at the Golden Globes. Directed by Luca Guadagnino and starring Zendaya, 'Challengers' was expected to be a frontrunner in multiple categories but received zero nominations, prompting widespread criticism from fans on social media. Other notable snubs include Denis Villeneuve for 'Dune: Part Two' and Angelina Jolie for 'Maria', which only garnered a single nomination for cinematography. These omissions have led to discussions about potential biases and oversights by the Academy, as fans lament the lack of recognition for their favorite films and performances. The Oscars will be held on March 2, 2025.
