How Demi Moore overcame 'bigoted' and 'anti-Demi' power players to secure first Oscar nom


Demi Moore has garnered her very first Oscar nomination after overcoming 'bigoted' and 'anti-Demi' power players following her debut in the industry 40 years earlier.

It is Moore's very first Oscar nom despite starring in a number of movies throughout her decades-long career in Hollywood such as St. Elmo's Fire (1985), Ghost (1990), A Few Good Men (1992) and Indecent Proposal (1993). Joffe recalled that an editor for an East Coast publication had told him insiders in the industry were less than thrilled that he had cast Demi in the lead role of Hester Prynne. Demi is up for an Academy Award for Best Actress, along with Cynthia Erivo (Wicked), Karla Sofia Gascon (Emilia Perez), Mikey Madison (Anora) and Fernanda Torres (I'm Still Here).
