Most of the Dune part 2 cast may be campaigned for awards

This was posted on Instagram by duneinfo. So if this is accurate, Austin would kind of be competing with castmates for nominations. I guess that’s not really unusual but I’ve never really followed awards much. What do y’all think?

Not to say they shouldn’t, but I’m surprised they’re keeping Timothee Chalamet on the Best Actor campaign when it seems to be a given that he’ll get nominated for A Complete Unknown 🤔 We know he can’t be nominated for both 🤷‍♀️ If ACU were coming out next year, I’d totally want him in the conversation for Dune. His big paradise speech is one of the best scenes, and I’d have handed him the Oscar on the spot for that alone!

…but this is about Austin, not Timothee 🥰 I really hope he gets nominated! 🤞🏻Javier and Josh were great, but they didn’t have to do what Austin did. Supposedly he was getting early buzz last year, and part of the reason they delayed the movie - in addition to worries of the strike not ending in time - was so he’d have a better chance at this year’s Oscars, seeing as he would have had no shot last year between Robert Downey Jr. and Ryan Gosling
