Yes, I do think that this is a really critical spot for award season.
The last eight winning actors for Oscars have all done Actors on Actors.
So that is a track record and that is a statistic I want to keep going.
But yes, if you want to win an Oscar, you should do Actors on Actors.
So I think that Dwayne Johnson definitely had a chance and is in the conversation to win an Oscar.
I don't know if it's a done deal.
I think Best Actor is incredibly competitive, and I think it's going to come down between Ethan Hawke, who's in a movie called Blue Moon, who's never won an Oscar before, Leonardo DiCaprio, who could win his second Oscar for one battle after another, and Timothee Chalamet, who's been nominated—this will be his third nomination if he's nominated—
You heard it here.
This has been an incredibly difficult week for everyone in our newsroom and everyone in Hollywood, because the thing about Rob Reiner is that he was universally beloved by everyone.
I even saw the other night on Fox News, James Woods, who worked on a movie called Ghost of Mississippi that Rob Reiner directed, talking about how even though they weren't politically aligned, he was such a good guy.
He was so nice.
He always, when he talked to my journalist, he always was very thoughtful and kind and very generous with his time.
He wasn't
one of those Hollywood directors that looked down on people, he invited everyone in.
And I think when you look at the clips of the great movies he's made, when you look at all the tributes to when Harry met Sally and how pivotal that was in most people's lives and him partnering with Nora Ephron and bringing Nora Ephron into the industry because she was obviously a journalist for many years and mentoring her and
working with everyone from Elijah Wood to Whoopi Goldberg and just really, really having such a huge heart.
This has been profoundly sad and affected everyone in Hollywood because he was such a kind man.
He was such a humane man, as Dan Daddario writes in our magazine this week.
And it's really, really hard for us to process what happened.
He directed even Rumor Has It with Jennifer Aniston.
