Same place, same time! The 87th edition of the Oscars, the most anticipated and important event for actors all over the world is just 4 days away, and here at TBS our crew is already placing bets on who will be awarded the statuettes. Hoping we won’t be disappointed like last year, when Leo DiCaprio left empty handed once again, after Matthew McCounaghey stole the prize for best actor from under his nose. It certainly wasn’t his first time, but don’t think he’s the only one: many of cinemas greats have walked on that stage, deservingly winning their prize, but not all of the best were awarded! We have compiled a list with 10 of the most famous actors who never won an Oscar. Would you have ever guessed?
Johnny Depp
3 Nominations:one for The Curse of the Black Pearl in 2004, one for Finding Neverland in 2005 and one for Sweeney Todd. Empty handed.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Sadly he could be considered as the “loser” figure for the last few years. 4 nominations in total: What’s Eating Gilbert Grape, The Aviator, Blood Diamond and The Wolf of Wall Street. His face at the last edition of the Oscars was memorable, where Matthew Mc Conaughey stole the coveted prize from under his nose.
Brad Pitt
Nominated for The Curious Case of Benjamin Button in 2009 and Moneyball in 2012 and Twelve Monkeys, he never won an oscar.
Bruce Willis
Stellar career, but he never won an Oscar, just a Golden Globe.
Harrison Ford
Class of 1942, a respectable career and only one nomination for his performance in Witness, but 0 awards.
Julianne Moore
Nominated a staggering 4 times:Boogie nights, The End of the Affair , Far From Heaven and The Hours, but incredibly she never won.
Michelle Pfeiffer
3 Nominations for: Dangerous Liaisons, The Fabulous Baker Boys and Love Field, no awards won.
Tom Cruise
Oscar condender for Born On The Fourth of July, Jerry Maguire and Magnolia, 3 nominations and zero statuettes.
Richard Gere
You won’t believe it! He never won an Oscar, and amazingly he was never even nominated.
Marilyn Monroe
She was the greatest diva of all and every man’s dream, nevertheless she never won an Oscar.
