The Di Academy Awards have come a long way since the public relations disaster in 2015, when they brought the 20 acting nominations they give to white artists, we do the #OscarsSoWhite trend around the world.
Di blacklash for social media made the organization take a long time on imsef, and this annual list of pipo wey fit win be the most diverse and has never been.
But nominations are not everything; after all, na to win the Oscars.
Here’s how this year’s ceremony fits in to make history, if the vows defer the right way.
Best director
If Chloe Zhaocarry won by discrimination, she will be the first non-white woman to win.
Dem nominated a US-based Chinese filmmaker for Nomadland, which follows the story of a woman who traveled the west after losing her job after the 2008 financial crisis.
In fact, Zhao will be the second woman to win the best director award in the history of the 92nd awards.
Kathryn Bigelow is the first woman to win the award for her Iraqi drama The Hurt Locker.
The best … many things
But not being a better director only Chloe fits to win.
Dem also nominated it for Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Editing.
If you win in all four categories, you will become the second person and the first woman in history, to wear four statuettes for one night.
I gave the first prize to win at Walt Disney, with a record four Oscars in 1954, for best 9-shot documentary theme), best short theme (cartoon 0, and best short theme (two reels).
Arguably, Zhao’s achievement will be even greater, as his victories will be in more prestigious categories.
The best movie
Zhao is not the only woman nominated for the grand prix.
British actress and writer Emerald Fennell is nominated for Best Picture, Best Director and Best Original Screenplay for Promising Young Woman, a black comedy about a 30-year-old woman who dropped out of medical school in search of revenge.
If she wins all the awards, she will be the first woman to win the top Oscars for her work off screen.
Anoda’s history-making team was nominated for the award by producers Shaka King and Ryan Coogler, who are behind the film Judas and Black Messiah.
If they win, they will be the first all-black production team to rank first in that category.
best Actor
This year was also the first time a Muslim actor was nominated for best actor.
Riz Ahmed was nominated for his rock as a metal drummer when he battled hearing loss for the movie Sound Metal.
It is not the first time that Muslim actors have made history for their awards.
By 2017, Mahershala Ali became the first Muslim actor and won the Academy Award for his role in Monlight in the best supporting category.
He won again two years later with his performance as a concert pianist in the 1960s for Green Bok.
But it doesn’t take a year for a Muslim actor to be nominated for best actor.
This year, Riz Ahmed contested the competition for the award of another British actor, who also set a record with the victory.
Like the vast majority of best actor winners, Sir Anthony Hopkins is white. But at 83, he will become the oldest di Award winner for his role in di Father.
Eight times with bad luck?
Meanwhile, another veteran movie star will hope not to set a record at this year’s Oscars.
American actress Glenn Close is nominated for an Oscar for the eighth time.
But her seven previous nominations have seen her go home empty-handed.
He is now in the unhappy position of being on his way to breaking his own record for most nominations without a win, and matching the men’s, set by acting legend Peter O’Toole.
