Mere days after picking up a statuette for Boyhood, Patricia Arquette was off solving computer-crimes on CSI: Cyber. Eddie Redmayne took home the gold for The Theory of Everything, and celebrated by bellowing his way through an utterly incomprehensible turn in Jupiter Ascending. A decade and a half out from his win for The Pianist, and Adrien Brody is still doing this. To this proud list we may now add Gary Oldman, who may not have won this year's best actor prize at all if Netflix's new sci-fi picture Tau got a release prior to the voting deadline. Oldman voices the title character, an artificial intelligence program tasked with keeping reluctant test subject Julia (a lost-looking Maika Monroe) captive, and not since Patrick Stewart voiced a literal pile of feces in The Emoji Movie has an actor so thoroughly embarrassed themselves without appearing onscreen.
