Despite the fact that Selma actor, David Oyelowo was overlooked in the nominations for the 87th edition of the Oscar awards, the Nigeria-born British actor has stepped out at the event looking dashing in a maroon tuxedo.
David Oyelowo played the lead role in the movie, Selma which got a nomination in the Best Film category. In the movie, David created a sensitive and moving portrayal of one of America’s most legendary civil rights leader, Dr. Martin Luther King but didn’t get any nomination for his role in a year in which no actor of African descent is up for any award.
