Bale vs. Damon
In the middle of next month, the biographical drama "Ford vs. Ferrari" will be released in USA, which tells about the fascinating confrontation between the teams of Henry Ford II and Enzo Ferrari at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The main roles in the film by James Mangold were played by Matt Damon and Christian Bale. The first played the car designer Carroll Shelby, and the second played the driver Ken Miles. Today it became known that friends on the screen will become rivals in the fight for the world's leading film awards.Hollywood is preparing for the start of the next season of the distribution of prizes, so many studios are already considering a strategy for the Oscar race. Typically, filmmakers with two strong acting jobs will separate the stars into different categories. Even if the performers of the leading roles had the same amount of screen time, one of them is sent to the nomination "Best Actor", and the second is promoted as a supporting actor. The creators of the film "Ford vs. Ferrari" will not use loopholes in the rules of film organizations and will present the audience with a fair sports fight: Damon and Bale will be direct rivals in the struggle for the Oscars and other prizes.  This, of course, does not mean that both actors will pass the pre-selection sieve and be included in the number of Oscar 2020 finalists. If that does happen, Christian will receive a fifth Academy Award nomination. The Briton has already won a gold statuette in the category for supporting stars. Bale's success earned him a role in the sports drama The Fighter. As for Damon, he entered the prestigious Oscar club thanks to his work on the script for Good Will Hunting. Matt also has three nominations in the acting category. The USA premiere of the film "Ford vs. Ferrari" will take place on November 14. Source: Variety The Topic of Article: Bale vs. Damon. |
