However, being a singer who can be seen covering her favorite songs in her free time is what truly got her into the glittery world of entertainment. She can go and on about the British Royal Family and everything Hollywood and doing so works like a shot of espresso for the writer. She aims to interview her favorite rapper, Nicki Minaj, some day. In her free time, you will find her playing Call of Duty, watching BoJack Horseman, or catching up on true crime documentaries.

In the world of cinematic achievements, there has been nothing quite like bagging an Oscar award. While every filmmaker and studio would love for their hard work to be honored with the award, it takes a little longer for some. That has been the case for Netflix recently. Although the streamer has been nominated time and time again, they have not managed to take home their prize.
Now, with them having Maestro in the running, fans are hoping that could change. However, it seems rather unlikely as a handful of iconic films are also up for consideration.
<h2>Why Netflix will not be bagging an Oscar</h2>
For the last 5 years, Netflix has been trying its hardest to land the Academy Award for Best Picture. While the award has always been a tiny bit out of reach, it looks like this year is no different. Although the film, Maestro, has received 7 nominations, there is no doubt that Christopher Nolan&#8217;s Oppenheimer will be heading home with that win. After all, the cast of the biographical drama has been <a href="https://www.netflixjunkie.com/hollywood-news-christopher-nolan-leads-oppenheimer-to-bafta-domination-after-best-picture-win/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sweeping every award show</a> recently.
<div class="flex-video widescreen youtube"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Maestro | Official Trailer | Netflix" width="1170" height="658" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/gJP2QblqLA0?start=6&#038;feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
Bradley Cooper&#8217;s film might have captivated the music aficionados. However, it has not been doing too well in the award circuit. While the movie may not be getting the recognition that it deserved, it still ended up being one of the actor&#8217;s best performances. After all, he not only changed his entire look for the role of Leonard Bernstein, but he also practiced learning how to conduct an orchestra for only 6 minutes of screen time.

Netflix might not have gotten lucky at the Oscars this time around. However, it would not be the first time that the streamer was on the verge of success.
<h2>Netflix films that almost won an Oscar</h2>
For nearly almost a decade now, Netflix has been pushing out more and more content for its audience. While initially they had only been adding other movies and shows to their library, they soon decided to try their hand at creating their films. As with everything, their process has had some ups and downs. However, the streaming giant managed to perfect their ideas for 2 films, The Power of the Dog and Ma Rainey&#8217;s Black Bottom.

Both films made history for Netflix with nominations in various categories, such as Best Actor, Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor, and more. However, only Jane Campion, the director of the Benedict Cumberbatch film, ended up winning the Best Director award in 2022.

After 5 long years of trying to bag an Oscar award, here is the reason why Netflix will miss out on the fabled award once again this year.

Prathika Prashant is a Hollywood and Music News writer at Netflix Junkie. She is an expert in everything Kanye West, from his outings to releases. These comprise a large chunk of her 600+ NJ articles. With extensive coverage of music entities like West and Taylor Swift, this journalism graduate is working her way towards bagging an interview with Nicki Minaj. When she is not covering Ye’s latest album drop updates, Prashant has her nose stuck in a murder mystery book or true crime documentaries.
