    Also nominated for best actress in a leading role were Golden Globe winner Isabelle Huppert for "Elle," Ruth Negga for "Loving," Natalie Portman for "Jackie" and Stone for "La La Land."

    Two Disney's animated films got nominations in best animated feature film category, "Moana" and "Zootopia" . "Kubo and the Two Strings," "My Life as a Zucchini" and "The Red Turtle" are also in the list.

    Different from the former two "all white" Oscars, this time black actors or actress and films on minority's life have been focused. Among all 20 acting performance nominations, six goes to black stars. "Moonlight" and "Fences" each got 8 and 4 nominations.

    The Oscar nominations were unveiled in a different way than the traditional early morning gathering of reporters and publicists at the Academy's theater in Beverly Hills. Instead, the Academy provided a largely pre-taped announcement show on its websites and digital platforms and transmitted to television stations on a satellite feed.

    The 89th Academy Awards ceremony is scheduled for Feb. 26 at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.
