The nominees for the 96th Academy Awards have been announced, and one of the movies receiving recognition is Poor Things, which is considered one of the best films of 2023 by CinemaBlend. The movie is a Frankenstein-inspired story with a sexual twist, including several controversial nude scenes, but it's also a heartwarmingly quirky flick. The film has been nominated for 11 awards, including Best Supporting Actor for Mark Ruffalo, who's been nominated in the category multiple times over the years. Now, the Hulk performer has finally broken his silence on the nomination, and it's very on-brand.
The Avengers alum has been nominated for Best Supporting Actor three times over the course of his career. These nods were for his roles in The Kids Are All Right (2011), Foxcatcher (2015), and Spotlight (2016). Despite initially having reservations about playing the role of Rake, he now has another Oscar nomination to add to his illustrious career. The 56-year-old actor shared his reaction to this news on his Instagram account. The post included some tremendous behind-the-scenes images of the Begin Again actor and his nominated co-star, Emma Stone. The post featured the following caption:
