DENZIL WASHINGTON

How Many Does He Have?

Denzel Washington is one of the most celebrated, and rightfully so, actors of his time. He’s been nominated for countless awards over the years, but just how many Oscars does he have?

Denzel was nominated for his first Oscar in 1988 for Best Supporting Actor for his unforgettable role in Cry Freedom. He lost to Sean Connery.

Denzel didn’t have to wait long though for his first win.  Two years later in 1990, Denzel won the Best Supporting Actor for his role in Glory.

From there, Denzel was nominated for the first time for Best Actor in 2000 for his role In The Hurricane. He lost to Kevin Spacey.

But true to form, two years later, Denzel won again, this time for Best Actor, in 2002, for his role in Training Day.

Since then, Denzel has been continually nominated for his roles in movies like Flight (2013), Fences (2017), and Roman J. Israel (2018), but he has yet to have won again.

In total, Denzel has two wins and 9 nominations.
