12 Saturn Award-Winning Performances Of The 2010s That Should've Been Oscar-Nominated
8. Josh Brolin - Avengers: Infinity War
Discussion has raged for years over the eligibility of motion-capture performances at the Academy Awards - namely sparked by Andy Serkis' string of exceptional performances in the special suit - but he was joined by in the pantheon of such great turns in 2018 when Josh Brolin finally got to flex his muscles as the MCU's Mad Titan.
The actor walked away with several critics association honours for his performance in the first part of Marvel's two-part Infinity Saga conclusion, bringing an unexpected emotional depth to the role as a figure grappling with his own misgivings over the pursuit of self-appointed destiny.
With Black Panther dominating the genre conversation come awards season, Infinity War was mostly snubbed across the board - but Brolin's haunted incarnation would have been a worthy contender.
