For any actor, an Oscar nomination is one of the most important and meaningful points in their career. After all, such a mark can bring recognition and respect and a new-found demand for their services. Some of the greatest actors and actresses have been nominated for an Oscar numerous times, many of which have won the prestigious award. Most actors work hard at achieving this, whilst others continue to work for that all-important paycheck and could care less about bagging an Academy Award. There are also a handful of very successful and respected actors who have never been recognized with a single Oscar nomination, even though they have delivered terrific and iconic performances over the course of their careers, leading to some of the most notorious snubs in the Academy Awards' 85 year history. With this year's Oscars just around the corner - and 20 more nominated actors vying for the acting awards this year - we take a look at 10 of the greatest actors and actresses who have never been nominated for an Oscar. At the time of this press, this list looks at actors who are no longer around and also actors still working today who have yet to be nominated for an Oscar.
