Following a submission by Academy Governor Leonard Engelman to the Board of Governors of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the Academy has agreed to increase the maximum number of Best Makeup Oscar nominees per film to three nominees — ‘on occasion’ — with effect from this year.
As part of his submission Leonard Engelman cited two circumstances where a third nomination would be appropriate: the general case where there are three separate areas of responsibility (Makeup, Special Makeup Effects, and Hairstyling); and the particular case of The Grinch where Kazuhiro Tsuji both sculpted the creation and applied the Grinch’s makeup every day but was not included in the nominations under the existing rules.
There is an article on monstersandcritics.com which includes the relevant excerpt from the new rules; the new rule has not yet been posted on the Academy website.
