Anyone who sees their hopes diminished is Charles Melton (“May December”), after also failing to longlist from the British Academy.

Among these cases are names like Kristen Stewart (“Spencer”), michelle williams It is Judd Hirsch (“The Fabelmans”) and even Regina King (“If Beale Street Could Talk”) which would go on to win the Oscar.
