>Variety has learned exclusively that Ortiz’s work is eligible for Academy Award consideration in acting categories, based on current rules. In addition, his work is eligible for the Actor Awards, where puppeteers fall under SAG-AFTRA jurisdiction, which the organization confirmed to his representatives. However, under the Golden Globes’ existing rules, his work will not be eligible. The Critics Choice Awards have no explicit guidelines that would exclude him, suggesting he will be eligible for consideration.

Well if dogs can win, why not this?
Yeah that’s not gonna happen, and let’s at least get a mocap artist nominated first.
I’ve heard George Lucas wanted Frank Oz to be nominated for Yoda in Empire Strikes Back. I think this would be pretty cool.
Fist my bump
If they never gave it to Frank Oz or Andy Serkis.
I don’t see them doing it now.
if gollum can win this can also win.
Jim Henson’s office might call

Good, he deserves a nomination at least
He’s so good I didn’t realize it was a puppet.
Andy Serkis’ ears burning
Its not the first puppet I cried for. Props out to technique.
Justice for Gollum!
It would be very deserved. For his puppet work and voice work.
If Andy serkis didn’t win for Caesar I am afraid no one is going to now. But rocky is a winner in my heart 😌
