For the second year in a row, the Academy has snubbed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who was hoping for a virtual spot on Sunday's Oscar telecast on ABC following his remote appearance at the Berlin Film Festival last month. Sources say, WME power agent Mike Simpson made a plea to the Academy to include the comedic actor-turned-politician but was shut down. The Academy declined to comment.
