It looks as though after winning the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival earlier this year, Joker’s award season is just getting started. The Hollywood Music in Media Awards revealed their list of nominees for 2019 which included Joker receiving a nomination for composer Hildur Guðnadóttir in the main Original Score – Feature Film category. This marks the first nomination for the Icelandic musician and composer at the Hollywood Music in Media Awards. She won a Primetime Emmy Award in September for her work on the HBO limited Series Chernobyl and is also nominated for an HMMA for her work on the series.
Joker began its Oscar campaign last week and by with this nomination, the film is off to a good start as the Awards Season heats up in the coming months.
