The 92nd Annual Academy Awards ceremony will take place on February 9 at the Dolby Theatre in the Hollywood section of Los Angeles. The award gala will be aired live in India on February 10 morning. One of the nominees this year is Tom Hanks. Tom, who won two consecutive Oscars for Philadelphia and Forrest Gump in the 90s, has been nominated for Best Performance by an Actor category in a Supporting Role for A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.
On his nomination Tom said, “I’m honoured to be included in the league of actors such as Anthony Hopkins, Joe Pesci, Al Pacino and Brad Pitt. It will be a grand night.” The actor has won twice, but has not been nominated since 2001.
He added, “You know, you always — you want to go to the pancake breakfast, you know? You want to be invited. You want to make the play-offs. And when the numbers come in and your peers are actually the ones who give you that nod, I bow down in humble submission to divine providence.”
