Luke Perry Snubbed In Oscars ‘In Memoriam’ Segment

Luke Perry, along with other beloved actors, was left out of Sunday’s Oscars 2020 “In Memoriam” segment.

Perry, who is best known for roles in 90210 and Riverdale, was not included in the segment though he had a cameo in Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, which was nominated for Best Picture and won two Oscars during the night.

As Billie Eilish performed “Yesterday” by the Beatles, celebrities like Kobe Bryant, Kirk Douglas, and Peter Fonda appeared on screen, but some fans noticed some of their favorite actors were snubbed.

Twitter users were quick to point out that missing from the list was 20-year-old Disney Channel actor Cameron Boyce.

Horror and cult film actor Sid Haig, famous for House of 1,000 Corpses, was also missing from the list.

Other users pointed out others absent from the segment, like Tim Conway, best known for playing Mister Tuddball and The Oldest Man in The Carol Burnett Show; Michael Pollard, who was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor as CW Moss in Bonnie and Clyde in 1967; and Jan-Michael Vincent, who played Matt Johnson in the 1978 film Big Wednesday.

The Academy has since updated its “In Memoriam” slideshow on its website to include everyone mentioned in this story.
