dahmie2013: None! My Leonardo Dicapirio hasn't won any , even after acting dat super The Avaitor, in short oscar, dia ris Godoooooo! Nywys, he's releasing 5 block busters next year, let's see if oscar won't give him d award after so many yrs of denial. Even if he nvr wins, I'm sure he'll get an hononary academy award at the end of his illustrious career. Anyway I nominate tonto dikeh for best actress nominee! 2 Likes |

If you mean actors of Nigerian descent that can win an Oscar , I'll say there are a few who can win it but if you mean Nigerian based actors , none can win it in this millennium. 1 Like |

How about focusing and developing our home grown and unique African Movie Awards? Why cant we make it a platform that even American Actors would yearn for its awards? Why do Africans have such a low sense of communal esteem? Whilst I attest to the fact that the Oscars are of very high standards, we need to shift from the age old mentality of believing everything from Africa is inferior and everything from America is eternally superior. I even believe we have more we can learn from Bollywood in terms of truly engaging entertainment as opposed to the bland movies being released by Hollywood in recent times.

A Nollywood actor win oscar? Not in this world, or in the coming world nor the world to come after! First of all, they are relatively unknown, they actually talentless, speak jargons and all that and you are talking OSCARS. JOKES OF THE MILLENIUM. Lmao! You couldn't even say an MTV movie Award which is even a bit unrealistic. There are countless of great movies in Hollywood that never saw the light of a Golden Globe nomination talkless of the Academy Awards, how much then some obscure so-called actors in a mediocre nation or invisible industry? A whole Hollywood legend like Leonardo DiCaprio never win Oscar, active since 1970s, chaiiiiiiiii, am damn irritated! |

prof800:You made very valid points. It will be possible IF the "Nigerian" actor/actress was *playing a role in a very "deep" story *Or interpreting the role of an Important true life personality *And the movie production Must be top notche with good script interpretations all through and handled by a director that knows what he is doing You wont find any of this in Nollywood, so it is only possible for us to win it in Hollywood. Let us call a spade a spade, i wont cos of patriotism deceive myself. 2 Likes |

phrezzz: So i was just watching the movie 12YearsASlave. Am not much of a movie freak so you would understand my slowness in watching this movie at this time. The script to the acting to the directing was so on point. Was very proud (Did my research that Narthop Solomon) was a Nigeria-British actor but what drew my awesomeness for the film was Lupita Nyong'o the Kenya Beauty. Her interpreting the Role was Superb. The whipping scene was class shoutout to Mcqueen. And i most totally say she deserves the oscar award. For a second i tried to match any Nollywood Actress who could have acted as Pasty and brought in so much life to the character. None.. Reason: they don't spend time to research any role and they have been so type casted it is almost impossible for them to break out of their usual character. Example: Patience Ozokwo, nice actress she indeed is, but she can't play roles outside of wicked woman as her audience now know her for that role. Same for Pete Edochie, he must be s big man or a respectable village man.. Maybe I would nominate only Omotola Kehinde because I have seen a lot of versatility in her acting. 1 Like |

duni04:Same tot i had. Maybe to reduce his chance of winning The great gatby is A CLASSIC (one of the best fiction ever written according to the writers guild) and as such many would have looked forward to such a story winning Lots of awards by the time it was made into a movie. |
