Of course, this doesn’t mean that either Rogue One or Doctor Strange will even be nominated at the Academy Awards for Best Costume Design, an award that often goes to period dramas.
This is the second costume design nomination for Doctor Strange, which was nominated for Best Costume Design at the Satellite Awards but lost out to 1960s period drama Jackie.
It’s a much-deserved honor for both Rogue One and Doctor Strange just to be nominated at the Costumer Designers Guild Awards. Rogue One is something of a period piece itself, successfully re-creating the look of the galaxy from the classic original Star Wars trilogy and seamlessly adding fresh designs to its settings.
Rogue One and Doctor Strange face stiff competition from dramas like La La Land, Florence Foster Jenkins, and the aforementioned Jackie.
