Angelina Jolie is devastated, missed a series of nominations after divorc.e, turned away by Hollywood?

On January 23, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) announced the 2025 Oscar nominations. Best Actress is one of the important categories that receives a lot of attention.

The names mentioned are Demi Moore (The Substance), Karla Sofía Gascón (Emilia Pérez), Mikey Madison (Anora), Fernanda Torres (I'm Still Here) and Cynthia Erivo (Wicked). Once again, after the Screen Actors Guild Awards, Angelina Jolie was absent despite being nominated at the Golden Globes.

Sources say Hollywood appears to have sided with her ex-husband Brad Pitt.

On January 23, the 2025 Oscar nominations were announced and Jolie's name did not appear in the Best Actress category. This was a big shoc.k as the actress who won the golden statue 25 years ago invested all her energy into the role of legendary opera singer Maria Callas in the biopic directed by Pablo Larraín.

Angelina Jolie not only learned opera but also accepted a stressful promotional schedule to bring the Netflix-produced film closer to the audience. However, this failure followed disappointment when she was also not nominated at the SAG (Screen Actors Guild) Awards.

Despite being nominated for Best Actress at the Golden Globes, the final victory went to Brazilian actress Fernanda Torres for I'm Still Here. According to Page Six, not being recognized by the Academy was a heavy blow to Jolie, 49.

"Angelina is definitely devastated. Look at all the media coverage she's been doing for the film. She wants to be nominated. She's been on Jimmy Fallon's late-night show for the first time in over a decade. She's been to the Gotham Awards. She's done a bunch of magazine covers," a senior source close to the Oscars said.

Another Hollywood awards expert told Page Six there was no doubt Angelina was upset, stressing that the Oscar snub was not good for Angelina or the film's production company, Netflix.

Meanwhile, film industry sources confirmed that the reason the Maleficent star was ignored was because of her tumultuous divorc.e from Brad Pitt.

"This just shows that Hollywood is Team Brad. The Golden Globes show that the foreign press loves her, but Hollywood is not like that. No one is against Brad and giving Angelina a vote. Everyone just loves Brad," the insider emphasized.

However, another source refuted the argument that Brad Pitt influenced the Oscar boycott of Angelina: "The divorc.e is done. It's true that politics has a little influence on films and performances. But the fact that there are many films and individuals nominated for the first time. It shows that we still have a healthy industry."

According to Page Six, in the list of nominees for the Best Actress category, in addition to Cynthia Erivo, there was a chance to win an Oscar before. She was nominated for her role in the 2019 film Harriet. The remaining beauties were all recognized for their acting by AMPAS for the first time.

Angelina won the Academy Awar.d for Best Supporting Actress for Gir.l, Interrupted in 2000 and was nominated for Best Actress for Changeling in 2009. She also received the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Awar.d, presented periodically by AMPAS at the Governors Awards ceremonies, in 2013.

The suspicion that Brad Pitt intervened to restrain Angelina has sparked conflicting opinions. Some people acknowledged Angelina's impressive performance in the new film, but the majority of American audiences defended Brad Pitt in this case. They believed that the reason Angelina was not chosen was because of her acting, not because of the influence of the 1963-born actor.

Netizens commented: "If Hollywood is Brad's team, why wasn't he nominated for Babylon? She got a few nominations but didn't win at the Golden Globes, nor was she shortlisted for BAFTA", "Kate Winslet and Nicole Kidman have better reviews but weren't nominated either. It has nothing to do with Hollywood supporting Brad Pitt", "She put all her pain into the role so she should be nominated. She actively promoted the film so she was nominated. She wasn't nominated because Hollywood likes Brad Pitt. There's no place that says her acting is good enough to be nominated. Maybe that's why she wasn't nominated"...
