Let’s also not ignore the fact that he never claimed to be 100% straight. Yes he only had girlfriends before, and is currently in a relationship as well, but never did he say: im straight, or I’m not into guys. This also DOES NOT mean he is gay or bi. I know many gay men with female crushes and a crush doesn’t automatically mean you’re into them. Remember what happened with Kit Connor when people were accusing him of queerbaiting and it ended up making him feel forced to come out.
 
Is anyone surprised?
Priscilla just didn't have the reach that Elvis did and Saltburn was too divisive.
I thought at least he'd get nominated. There's a butt ton of acting nominations for just one random movie. Glenn Close got one a few years ago.
 
The academy simply does not care about young guys, especially under 30 lol can't remember a guy in his 20s that won an Oscar

22 young men under 30 across 86 years! That's 150 men above 30 who were nominated = 88% of all.

Thank you for proving my point.
