During a Vanity Fair profile, Black Widow actor Johansson exclaimed, "How did this film not get nominated for a [Best Picture] Oscar? It was an impossible movie that should not have worked, that really works as a film – and also, it’s one of the most successful films of all time."

Johansson, whose character Black Widow died in the 2019 multiverse feature, told Vanity Fair that the film was worthy of Academy attention. “Avengers: Endgame” was nominated for visual effects, but no acting or Best Picture nods.

Scarlett Johansson doesn't feel the Academy properly considered Avengers: Endgame, lamenting that the blockbuster only received a Visual Effects nod.
