Challengers, Zendaya Snubbed by Oscars Nominations

Fans of Zendaya and the film *Challengers* are expressing outrage after both the actress and the film were completely overlooked in this year's Oscars nominations. Despite Zendaya's acclaimed performance as Tashi Duncan earning her a Golden Globe nomination, the Academy did not recognize her or *Challengers* in any category. Critics and fans alike have taken to social media to voice their disbelief and anger, with many labeling the decision as 'evil' and an outright 'robbery' given the film's praised score and screenplay. The backlash intensified as fans compared *Challengers*'s snubbing to the five nominations received by *Dune: Part Two*, another film featuring Zendaya. While *Challengers* may not be in the Oscars race, it has garnered recognition elsewhere, including a Golden Globe for Best Original Score. The uproar reflects a broader disappointment with the Academy's selections and its perceived disregard for notable performances and contributions in film.
