Oscars 2025 nominations – Hollywood’s swipe at Trump and the biggest snubs | Films | Entertainment

Additionally, Hollywood has taken a huge swipe at the re-election of Donald Trump with a Best Actor Oscar nomination for Sebastian Stan.

The Apprentice is particularly controversial as it features a scene with the future Commander-in-Chief raping his then-wife Ivana. She accused him of rape when they were divorcing in 1990 but later distanced hersel...
