The list of nominations was unveiled by the Academy of Oscars on Tuesday, February 8.
If
The Power of the Dog
is in the lead with twelve nominations, including four for its actors, other films and actors have also experienced immense joy in discovering this list.
In particular Javier Bardem, nominated in the best actor category for
Being the Ricardos
, released on December 21, 2021 on the Amazon Prime Video platform.
A surprise all the more pleasing that his wife since 2010, Penélope Cruz, was also nominated as best actress for her role in
Madres Paralelas
by Pedro Almodóvar, released in theaters on December 1, 2021.
In video, "Being the Ricardos", the trailer
“It was a beautiful day at home,” Javier Bardem told
The Wrap
media on Tuesday, February 8.
Before adding: "We clung to each other, trying to hold on to the same sofa."
The couple were on fire during the announcement of the nominations: "When the best actor nomination came up, I knew my name would be the first because it starts with a B. So if they didn't start right away by pronouncing the syllable "Ja", we were going to have a problem.
I heard the "Ja" and I said "It's okay!"
And she celebrated that even more than me.”
Penelope Cruz, meanwhile, could not trust this "alphabetical" method: "They said Chastain, Colman and she said 'Too many c'", says the actor.
"And then, 'Penélope Cruz,' and that's when we cried out, 'Yeaaaaaah!'"
Javier Bardem is overjoyed at the event.
“It really makes the thing more valuable.
I mean, it's precious, of course, but the fact that you can share this with your wife for the wonderful and incredible work she does in
Madres Paralelas
, it's special, ”says the 52-year-old actor. .
Married and nominees
Javier Bardem and Penélope Cruz thus became the sixth married couple in Oscar history to be nominated the same year.
The Wrap
notably reminded the Spanish actor that the most famous couple to have achieved this feat was Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor.
“I hope we don't end up like them, do we?” he laughs.
Indeed the two actors were married in 1964, nominated for
Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
in 1967, divorced in 1974, then remarried in 1975, to divorce again in 1976.
