The biggest star of film won’t be at the 2024 Oscars this year.
I’m talking, of course, about Messi, the border collie who stole the show in Anatomy of a Fall. He took over the Oscars luncheon earlier this year in February, but per a report, he’s not going to make it to Sunday’s Academy Awards.
From the Hollywood Reporter: “Though reps for the Academy did not comment, a source at the Neon-distributed film says the French pup’s recent Hollywood sojourn, during which he overshadowed every human actor at the annual nominees luncheon, was a one-off. That means those A-Listers who didn’t get face time with Messi will just have to book a part in one of his future projects.”
UGH.
