Warner Bros. has formally lead off their For Your Consideration Oscars political campaign for Patty Jenkins’Wonder Woman , star Gal Gadot . The last installing in the studio ’s burgeon DC cinematic universe ( unofficially know as the DCEU ) came on the heel of multiple divisive movies - namely Zack Snyder’sMan of SteelandBatman V Superman : Dawn of Justice- within the freshly - formed shared creation and managed to surmount virtually every expectation .
Wonder Woman became the first DC Comics - relate picture since Christopher Nolan’sThe Dark Knight Risesto be " certified fresh " on Rotten Tomatoes , something that either of Snyder ’s movies nor David Ayer’sSuicide Squadwere able to ensure . What ’s more , the film also became the highest - grossing DC Comics - relate movie at the domesticated box authority since Nolan ’s finalBatmanchapter , thus surpassing every previous DCEU installment ; not to mention the fact that ’s it ’s nowthe highest - gross superhero origin account domestically(it ’s still a few hundred thousand buck shy ofSpider - Man ’s unadjusted world-wide gross ) . So , it ’s not surprising thatthe studio plan on giving the movie an Oscars push- and it seems like it has at long last begun .

Warner Bros. has launch theirFor Your condition Oscars hunting expedition page , which name the movies -Blade Runner 2049,Dunkirk , The LEGO Batman Movie , andWonder Woman- they be after on submitting for the 90th Academy Awards in 2018 . The Oscars have 24 total categories , and the studio plans on submittingWonder Womanfor 15 of the picture ’s 16 " eligible " category , include Best Cinematography , Best Actress , Best Director , and Best Picture . The only " eligible " category the pic is n’t being submitted for is Best Actor , and that ’s becauseWonder Womandoesn’t have a lead actor ; Chris Pine was a patronise histrion .
There ’s no deny the impact Wonder Woman had not only on the filmmaking diligence but on society in general . Before Jenkins and Warner Bros. told Diana Prince ’s account on the big CRT screen , the DC Comics superhero was always a pharos of hope and strong suit for women around the globe . After all , she was initiallynamed a U.N. Honorary Ambassador of Gender Equality , before finally beingstripped of the title due to online backlash . While no one ’s refutingWonder Woman ’s ethnical impact , masses may be singular as to the film ’s real chances at the Oscars next yr .
Since theOscar - bait time of year has only begun , it ’s inconceivable to tell what the movie ’s expectation really are , but the film certainly has a chance at snatching up accolade in the technical categories , such as Best Costume Design , Best Visual Effects , and Best Sound Editing , among others . What ’s more , turn over the tumult surrounding The Weinstein Company(a studio that unremarkably embroil at the Oscars ) , it ’s possible thatWonder Womanmay bear a chance at compete in one of the in demand categories , but we ’ll just have to wait and see what happens .
