Things looked slightly better for our black men in the Best Actor category. Both Denzel Washington (Roman Israel, Esq.) and Daniel Kaluuya (Get Out) were nominated for their box office hits. Overall, Jordan Peele‘s Get Out was nominated an impressive four times (Best Directing, Best Picture and Original Screenplay)
