Sharlto Copley continues on the path towards super-stardom this morning, following his two nominations for this year’s Spike Awards/ Scream 2010. He has been nominated in the Best Breakout Male Performance and the Best Science Fiction Actor category for his role in the hugely popular District 9, where he played Wikus van der Merwe. Incredible, he’s nominated alongside Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert Downey Jr., Matthew Fox and Denzel Washington in the one category. Well done Sharlto and to District 9 director, Neill Blomkamp too! On the news of his nominations, Copley said,
“Thank you. I’m very grateful to the distinguished “SCREAM” advisory board for these nominations,” for the nods he received for Breakout Performance and Best Science Fiction Actor.”
