- The Oscars are on Sunday, March 2.

The Academy Awards are just around the corner, and while some stars like Mikey Madison are competing for their first award, others, like Edward Norton and Cynthia Erivo, are entering familiar territory.
This year, Norton is nominated for his fourth Oscar for his portrayal of Pete Seeger in “A Complete Unknown” and Erivo is nominated for her third thanks to her performance as Elphaba Thropp in “Wicked.” Both will be looking for the first Oscar win of their careers on March 2 at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles.
And they’re not alone. Call it a snub or simply not the right time, plenty of other actors, directors, producers, and others in the industry are still waiting to receive their first Academy Award — much to the public’s surprise.
From Bradley Cooper to David Fincher, here are 20 Hollywood stars we can’t believe have never won an Oscar.
