Twitter Reacts To Chadwick Boseman Losing At The 2021 Oscar Awards

Twitter Is Upset Chadwick Boseman, Andra Day And Viola Davis All Lost At The 2021 Academy Awards

The 93rd Academy Awards held last night and winners have been fully revealed, including some surprising decisions for the most notable honors.

Nomadland had a huge night as well after taking home Best Picture and Best Actress for Frances McDormand’s performance.

Legendary actor Anthony Hopkins won Best Actor for his performance in The Father, surprising many in the audience who expected the late Chadwick Boseman to be given the honor.

Boseman passed away in 2020 after a lengthy private battle with conor cancer. “They build the entire show around a Chadwick Boseman ending and then Anthony Hopkins won and didn’t show up,” New York Times’ Kyle Buchanan tweeted.

Kyle’s tweet is in reaction to The Oscars giving Nominees a Chadwick Boseman NFT that is selling for $1.2 million.

Another controversial category is the Best actress in a leading role which was won by Frances McDormand, Nomadland. However, fans are upset Viola Davis and Andra Day failed to win an award at the event.

The Oscars were so sure that Chadwick Boseman was going to win that they REARRANGED THE ENTIRE CEREMONY so his category could be last, and then they gave the award to Anthony Hopkins instead…the most chaotic and unhinged thing I’ve ever seen.

An absent Anthony Hopkins winning over Chadwick Boseman during a ceremony built to end around a Boseman win while Joaquin Phoenix awkwardly stumbles through it all is…wow. Chaos!
