They sent a candle and I assumed it came to the wrong address and now I realize it was for me so... I’m going to need it back now. Very honored. Thanks @TheAcademy! https://t.co/mrLkXoqZ0s

In the directors category, new additions include Lulu Wang (The Farewell), Alma Har'el (Honey Boy), Mati Diop (Atlantics), and Ari Aster (Midsommar), all of which were ironically overlooked by the Oscars last year.
Once upon a time a woman named @LorenzaMunoz joined @TheAcademy and said we need some change. We see you and all the storytellers you fight for.

Class 2020 is TROUBLE.
Watch this wave. https://t.co/fDCEDts3zU
Very excited to be a new member of @TheAcademy with so many brilliant minds. Though there is still much work to be done, this class looks more like an actual jury of our PEERS than ever before, so that's a step in the right direction. Onwards! https://t.co/HnDtbneW0K
