00:39I'm Rick Dalton.

00:40It's my pleasure, Mr. Schwartz.

00:42Call me Marvin, put it there.

00:44That your son?

00:45No, that's my stunt double, Cliff Booth.

00:46Now this year's noms saw a number of feats achieved

00:49and records broken.

00:50Saoirse Ronan earned a best actress nom for Little Women,

00:53marking the fourth Oscar nom of her career.

00:56At just 25 years old, this makes her the second youngest

00:58performer ever to receive that number of Oscar noms.

01:01Well, I only sold what was my own.

01:03You're one beauty.

01:04You look like a boy.

01:05Now the current record holder is Jennifer Lawrence.

01:08J-Law has Ronan beat by just mere months.

01:10This year's other best actress nominees are

01:12Cynthia Erivo for Harriet, Scarlett Johansson for Marriage Story,

01:16Charlize Theron for Bombshell, and Renee Zellweger for Judy.

01:19I just want what everybody wants.

01:21I just seem to have a harder time getting it.

01:24In the Best Actor category, stars who woke up to the news they were nominated are

01:28Antonio Banderas for Pain and Glory, marking his first Oscar nom,

01:32Leonardo DiCaprio for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood,

01:34Joaquin Phoenix for Joker,

01:36Jonathan Pryce for The Two Popes,

01:37and Adam Driver for Marriage Story.

01:39We start from a place of reasonable, and they start from a place of crazy.

01:44When we settle, we'll be somewhere between reasonable and crazy.

01:48But while these performers were celebrating this morning,

01:51a few superstar Oscar hopefuls were totally snubbed.

01:54Jennifer Lopez was left out of the Best Supporting Actress category for Hustlers,

01:58and Beyoncé was denied a Best Original Song nom for her track Spirit from The Lion King.

02:03In the Performance category, stars who failed to earn Best Actor nom

02:09include Rocketman's Tarrant Edgerton, fresh off a Golden Globes win,

02:13Christian Bale for Ford vs. Ferrari,

02:15Eddie Murphy for Dolomite Is My Name,

02:17and Adam Sandler for Uncut Gems.

02:19You having a good time?

02:23Yes.

02:24Sandler reacted to the snub on Twitter, writing,

02:26Bad news, Sandman gets no love from the Academy.

02:29Good news, Sandman can stop wearing suits.

02:31Congrats to all my friends who got nominated, especially Mama.

02:34Along with a photo of Kathy Bates, who starred alongside Sandler in Waterboy

02:38and received a Best Supporting Actress nom today for her role in Richard Jewell.

02:42Over in the Best Actress category, the Farewells, Awkwafina was snubbed

02:45after winning a Golden Globe just days ago.

02:48And Lupita Nyong'o, who received a SAG Award nom for Us, was also left out.

02:52And while the Academy gave Frozen a Best Animated Feature win in 2014,

02:56its sequel, Frozen 2, was totally left out of the Best Animated Feature category.

03:01The movie did, however, earn a nom for Best Original Song.

03:04I am afraid of what I'm risking if I follow you into the unknown.

03:12Justice for Queen Anna and Elsa.

03:14And speaking of the Queen, she has spoken.

03:17We're finally hearing from the British monarch herself after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's

03:21shocking announcement that they're making their royal exit, or Megxit as some have coined it.

03:26A statement released from Buckingham Palace on Monday said,

03:29My family and I are entirely supportive of Harry and Meghan's desire to create a new life as a young family.

03:34Although we would have preferred them to remain full-time working members of the royal family,

03:38we respect and understand their wish to live a more independent life as a family while remaining a valued part of my family.

03:45The monarch also claimed an agreement had been reached for a, quote,

03:48period of transition, where the couple would split their time between Canada, where Markle once lived, and the UK.

03:55The Queen concluded,

03:56These are complex matters for my family to resolve, and there is some more work to be done,

04:00but I have asked for final decisions to be reached in the coming days.

04:04The Queen's statement follows an afternoon of talks between the Queen, Prince Charles, Prince William, and Prince Harry,

04:10with Markle reportedly dialing into the conversation as she is currently back in Canada to be with their newborn Archie.
