Where to find 2019 Oscar nominees and winners on Showmax

The much-anticipated Academy Awards 2019 nominations were announced by Black-ish actress Tracee Ellis Ross and winner of last year’s Best Original Screenplay for Silicon Valley Kumail Nanjiani.

Of course, as is expected, in that old Oscars fashion, there were a few snubs, shocks, and surprises – and yes, Wakanda Forever as Black Panther became the first superhero movie to receive a Best Picture nomination.

Drum roll please… here are the Oscars 2019 nominees and winners that you can find on Showmax.
