... Excerpt from Oscars: ‘Black Panther’ Star Angela Bassett Makes Marvel History With Best Supporting Actress Nod:


Angela Bassett made history when the 2023 Oscar nominations were announced on Tuesday morning, becoming the first actor to land an Oscar nomination for their role in a Marvel movie.

Bassett’s Oscar nomination (her second) makes her the fourth Black woman in Oscar history to be nominated for multiple honors. Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter on Tuesday morning, the actress admits that her historic achievement wasn’t something she thought about until recently.

“I certainly didn’t think about that going into the first day of filming — I began to hear about that a couple of weeks ago,” says Bassett of the potential for setting a new standard for Marvel actors. “Others have pondered that reality, but it certainly wasn’t me. I’m grateful for the role and the opportunity to work with the incredible artists, the amazing crew and artisans behind the scenes.”


With Bassett’s nod she’s achieving something that none of the stars of the first Black Panther film, including the late Chadwick Boseman, as well as acclaimed Marvel performers like Ryan Reynolds in Deadpool, Hugh Jackman in Logan and Robert Downey Jr. in the Avengers and Iron Man films, accomplished.

Marvel’s counterpart DC Films famously saw its Dark Knight star Heath Ledger win best supporting actor for his role as the Joker. And, more recently, Todd Phillips’ Joker earned 11 Oscar nominations, the most of any comic book movie at that point, including a nod for best picture, with Joaquin Phoenix winning best actor for his role as the Gotham villain.
