Zack Snyder’s zombie horror film, Army of the Dead, has won the Oscars’ inaugural #FanFavourite award in Hollywood.
The new #FanFavourite award was first announced by the Academy in February, in an attempt to insulate themselves from accusations of insularity.
In 2018, the Oscars announced the creation of a new category for “best popular film”, only to scrap the plan a month later, following considerable backlash.
That honour does not come with an official prize and was met with silence in the auditorium.
