by Gretchen Roesch · March 8, 2018

While this week was big for certain Harry Potter movie actors (congratulations, Gary Oldman!), we also saw the nomination of many other actors for Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards and Olivier Awards (London’s equivalent of America’s Tony Awards).

Potter actors Ralph Fiennes (Lord Voldemort), Tom Felton, Domhnall Gleeson (Bill Weasley), Ezra Miller (Credence Barebone), David Thewlis (Remus Lupin), Emma Watson will all have work recognized at Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards. Emma Watson’s Beauty and the Beast was nominated for Favorite Movie, and Watson (alongside Star Wars: The Last Jedi leading lady Daisy Ridley and Wonder Woman herself, Gal Gadot), earned a Favorite Movie Actress nomination for her portrayal of Belle. Star Wars: The Last Jedi, featuring Domhnall Gleeson as the ruthless General Hux, was also nominated for Favorite Movie, as well as Wonder Woman, featuring David Thewlis as Ares. The Lego Batman Movie, in which Ralph Fiennes play’s Batman’s loyal butler, Alfred Pennyworth, was nominated for Favorite Animated Movie. Tom Felton previously appeared in the CW’s The Flash, which was nominated for Favorite TV Show and Favorite Movie Actor (Grant Gustin).
