With this year’s Oscars ceremony just days away, Netflix is hoping to win best picture
The company’s head of global film, Scott Stuber, says it is a “dream” of his for the streaming giant to take home this award.
Once the new kid on the block, Netflix is going into the 2022 Oscars with 27 Oscar nominations, which is more than any other production studio.
The Western drama, The Power of the Dog, is tipped as one of the favourites for best picture and best director.
While many of the movie’s stars, including Benedict Cumberbatch, are up for acting awards.
But the competition is fierce, with Netflix taking on fellow streamer Apple Plus, whose film Coda is also a favourite.
Stuber is known to be one of the most influential men in Hollywood and told the BBC he “hopes” Netflix will be the one who win it, but the company will be “ok” if it doesn’t.
