Ukraine calls on Academy to review Top Gun: Maverick’s Oscars eligibility
It comes less than a week before the 95th Academy Awards, which are due to take place on March 12.
The Ukrainian World Congress (UWC) has called on the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to “review the eligibility” of Top Gun: Maverick for this year’s Oscars, due to the film’s alleged ties with a Russian oligarch.
In an open letter published online on Tuesday, the UWC urged the organisation to be “vigilant” against “any attempts to influence Hollywood and American society”.
