2021 Oscar Predictions: PRODUCTION DESIGN (November)
Emma. makes her debut in Production Design this month, pushing Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom down into other contenders. The Personal History of David Copperfield climbs up two spots but there could be room for the Oscar-nominated duo behind George Clooney’s space drama The Midnight Sky. Mank and Mulan hold strong.
Coming 2 America will now debut on Amazon Prime Video on March 5, 2021, putting outside of the eligibility period for this season’s awards. Death on the Nile was pulled from Warner Bros’ release schedule with no word on when or where it will reappear.
