The ultimate Oscars quiz

On May 16, 1929, the first ceremony of the Oscars took place. With more than 300 actors being awarded through the years, it's a challenge to remember who got an award and who didn't.

Let's see how much you remember about Oscar winners

This quiz will test your knowledge of the people who have won the Academy Award for their acting performances. It's not going to be as easy as you think…

Sandra Bullock

Let's start the quiz with one of the queens of comedy: Sandra Bullock. Her character in 'Miss Congeniality' was really good, but could that role make her win an Oscar?

Sandra Bullock has an Oscar but…

Sandra Bullock has won an Oscar but not for her role in 'Miss Congeniality.' In 2009, the actress won the Oscar for Best Actress for the movie 'The Blind Side,' beating other magnificent actresses like Helen Mirren and Meryl Streep on the way. In 2013, Bullock was nominated again for her role in 'Gravity.'

Michelle Williams

One of the best actresses of the 21st century. She is elegant and perfect and has been nominated four times for her work in 'Blue Valentine' (2010), 'My Week with Marilyn' (2011), 'Brokeback Mountain' (2015), and 'Manchester by the Sea' (2016). With what movie do you think the actress took home the award?

Still no Oscar for her

It was a trick question. She actually doesn't have one. Beating Meryl Streep in some of these Oscar competitions is not easy, so Michelle Williams is still waiting for her statue.

Halle Berry

She was the protagonist of what many people consider one of the worst movies of all time: 'Catwoman' (2004). But leaving aside that failure, do you think Berry got any Oscars?

Yes, she does

In 2002, Halle Berry won her first Oscar for her role as Leticia Musgrove in the movie 'Monster's Ball'. The transparent burgundy Elie Saab dress she wore that day is now part of the history of fashion.

Charlize Theron

You may remember Charlize Theron for her performance in 'Aeon Flux', 'Mad Max' or 'Atomic Blonde,' but did any of those movies grant her the Academy Award?

Yes, she won an Oscar

In 2003, Charlize Theron won the Oscar for her role in 'Monster.' The actress was nominated on two other occasions, for the films 'North Country' (2005) and 'Bombshell' (2019).

Bradley Cooper

You may feel that Bradley Cooper is always among the Oscar nominees, and you may be right. The actor has been nominated four times as an actor and another four for his work as a screenwriter and producer. How many Oscars does he have?

Zero Oscars

Despite his 8 Oscar nominations, Bradley Cooper has won zero statues. After many projects and being one of the Academy's golden boys, the actor has still not been rewarded with an Oscar.

Jennifer Lawrence

Jennifer Lawrence (1990) has been involved in many projects. She played Katniss Everdeen in 'The Hunger Games' Saga, Mystic in the 'X-Men' universe, and even Mother Earth in 'Mother'. But does she have an Oscar? Has she ever even been nominated?

Yes, Jennifer Lawrence has won the award

Jennifer Lawrence has been nominated four times: three in the Best Actress category ('Winter's Bone', 'Silver Linings Playbook', 'Joy') and one for Best Supporting Actress ('American Hustle'). She ended up taking the Oscar home for her role in 'Silver Linings Playbook.'

Saoirse Ronan

Many people say that Saoirse Ronan is the new Meryl Streep, and we can see why. At 25, the actress has been nominated four times… But has she actually gotten an Oscar?

No Oscars for her yet

Her roles in 'Atonement' (2007), 'Brooklyn' (2015), 'Lady Bird' (2017), and 'Little Women’ (2019) didn't get her an Oscar.

John Malkovich

A classic actor who has been able to shift shape to get into many different roles. His career makes him the perfect candidate to have won an Oscar, but does the actor really have one?

He has never won an Oscar

Surprisingly, the actor has only been nominated on two occasions: For his role in 'Places in the Heart' (1984) and 'In the Line of Fire' (1993), and none of them granted him an Oscar.

George Clooney

Between 2005 and 2012, George Clooney was nominated seven times for his work as an actor, director, and screenwriter. He did in fact win two, but was it because of his role as an actor?

Yes, George Clooney got one Oscar for his acting

In 2005, George Clooney won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor in the movie 'Syriana.'

Rami Malek

Before any of his recent cinema popularity, we all knew Rami Malek for his role as Elliot Anderson in the TV show 'Mr. Robot'. The question is simple: Has the actor ever won an Oscar?

Yes, he has an Oscar

Rami Malek won the Oscar after his first-ever nomination for his role as Freddie Mercury in the biopic movie of The Queen singer: 'Bohemian Rhapsody.'

Naomi Watts

Naomi Watt's case is really similar to the one of Michelle Williams. She is one of the classic actresses of the Academy, but does she own a statue?

Naomi Watts has not won an Oscar

Although she has been nominated twice for her performance in '21 Grams' (2003) and 'The Impossible' (2013), Watts has never won an Oscar.

Angelina Jolie 

After three decades in Hollywood and many, many, many projects, Angelina Jolie is one of the brightest stars in the industry. Has the actress ever won an Oscar?

Yes, she took the statue home

Angelina Jolie won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her role as Lisa Rowe in the film 'Girl, Interrupted' (2008). She would be nominated again in 2008 for the Clint Eastwood movie 'Changeling.'

Glenn Close

Not once, not twice, but eight times has Glenn Close been nominated for an Oscar. It is easy to believe that must have won at least one, but has she?

No Osar

Between 1983 and 2020, the actress has been nominated eight times and won zero. The last time she had the chance to take the statue home was for the film 'Hillbilly Elegy' (2020).

Ethan Hawke

If we are talking about legends, Ethan Hawke is one of them. He has been involved in many projects in the last two decades, but has that been enough to win an Oscar?

The answer is no

Ethan Hawke has, in fact, only been nominated twice —for his performance in 'Training Day' (2002) and 'Boyhood' (2015)— and never won an Oscar.

Cher

We all know that Cher is a true diva and does everything well. Some may not know how long her filmography is. Has she ever won an Oscar?

Yes, she has

In 1987, Cher got an Oscar for her role of Loretta in 'Moonstruck' with Nicolas Cage. The chemistry between the two actors made the singer win the award over other excellent actresses like Glenn Close and Meryl Streep.

Nicolas Cage

Has the actor with the most memes in the history of the internet ever won an Oscar? Let's see!

Nicolas Cage has won an Oscar

Nicolas Cage is deserving of an Oscar. The actor won the award for his role in the movie 'Living Las Vegas' — over actors like Sean Penn and Anthony Hopkins— and was nominated for the film 'Adaptation' (2003).

Marisa Tomei

Aunt May from the 'Spider-Man' Saga is also here. One of the most undervalued actresses of the decade has been nominated three times for Best Supporting Actress, but does she have an Oscar?

Yes, she has won an Oscar!

Marisa Tomei won an Oscar for her first-ever nomination with the film 'My Cousin Vinny' (1992). She also received nominations for her performances in 'In the Bedroom' (2001) and 'The Wrestler' (2008).

The actress took the Oscar home as Best Supporting Actress in 'Mighty Afrodite' (1995). The movie, directed by Woody Allen, helped Sorvino to beat actresses like Joan Allen and Kate Winslet.
