“Congratulations to all of our nominated films, and especially Black Panther. To see it recognized by the Academy today with seven nominations, including Best Picture, is truly an honor. Congratulations and gratitude to Kevin Feige and the team at Marvel Studios and to our director, Ryan Coogler, and his incredible team and brilliant cast—we’re grateful for their creative excellence, unparalleled artistry and heartfelt passion for this project,” said Disney Chairman and CEO Bob Iger following today’s announcement.
“It’s wonderful and humbling to see so many of our films recognized by the Academy this morning with 17 nominations across eight films, including a Best Picture nomination for Black Panther and best Animated Feature nominations for Incredibles 2 and Ralph Breaks the Internet,” said Alan Horn, chairman, The Walt Disney Studios. “Congratulations to all of our nominees and the exceptional teams behind these films.”
Marvel Studios President and Black Panther producer Kevin Feige said, “Thank you so much to the Academy for this honor. This extraordinary recognition is an endorsement of what Black Panther represents for inclusion and for telling different kinds of stories. It has been humbling and gratifying to see the cultural impact this film has had, and it’s something we’re all very proud to have been a part of. This could not have happened without our amazing cast and crew and our brilliant director, Ryan Coogler, who brought his unique talent, experience, and deeply personal vision to this story.
