So glad Brad Pitt won Best Supporting Actor. Casting is needed

Honestly, there should be a category for Best Casting onto casting directors for the Oscars, just like what the Baftas award have, in creating a Best Casting category.

[@emiliobello2538]

Ok

[@MisanthropicTimeSlipperz]

Starting in 2026, the Academy is adding the best casting director as a category. Watch this woman win it for Tarantino's last film, The Movie Critic.
