Way back in 2014,
Internet Boyfriend and ONTD Film Critic Society Awards 2015 ‘Best Male Eye Candy’ winner Oscar Isaac was skirting beneath the radar, putting out great performances, and pouring water for his table at the Golden Globes like a true gent who knows the importance of hydration.
However, with ONTD Film Critic Society Awards 2015 ‘Best Cast’ winning film Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and HBO’s Show Me A Hero, for which this Staircase Session Singing prince won a Golden Globe, it seems his profile and star is rising like Icarus to the Sun. Fingers crossed he doesn’t get burnt and fall to Earth, although if he does it won’t just be Humans and Cats and Dogs and Astromech Droids waiting to catch him – all of Hollywood is parched af to hold this non-statuette Oscar in their hands.
Welcome in to this list of Llewyn Davis’Poe Dameron’s Oscar Isaac’s Golden Globe BFFs (and lady love), new and old.(Listed in Descending Order of Potential Importance)8. David BenioffOne of ONTD’s Least Fave Televisual Show-Runners, Game of Thrones’ David Benioff, was spotted trying to get his hands on his own Oscar, even if the Oscars are meant to be for films and not Shows About Unfinished Book Series.
Benioff continued his attempts at the HBO After Party, realising that since Acoustic Guitarist Oscar Isaac was fairly smashed, he may just have a chance at luring him to TV. He was probably disappointed to find out that Oscar Isaac doesn’t just accept any old script he gets sent tyvm.
Please take note of the mystery man reaching for Oscar, undoubtedly trying to stage an intervention and drag him from Benioff’s clutches.
It would be reasonable to assume that they know each other through Thirsty Attendee #3, Pedro Pascal, aka Oberyn Martell (RIP).7. Mark RuffaloHow do Isaac and The Hulk Mark Ruffalo know each other? That remains a question ONTD can ponder over. Just like Mark Ruffalo decided to get in on a multi-million dollar franchise gig, so too is he probably just getting in on the general public’s rampant thirst for Guatemalan-born Brooklyn-resident Oscar Isaac.
Typical Ruffalo, basically.
6. Aziz AnsariOscar was kind and generous enough to pose with his fans on the Red Carpet, one of those fans just so happened to be Aziz Ansari.
5. Bryce Dallas HowardOscar is well known for having a long time close friendship with fellow Juilliard grad Jessica Chastain, Isaac’s co-star in
A Most Violent Year, and
it appears that he is also acquainted with Bryce Dallas Howard of ONTD fave
Jurassic Park-World, frequent Chastain doppelganger.
4. Jacob TremblayJacob Tremblay, 9 year old star of Room (co-starring Brie Larson), told E! on the Red Carpet that his favourite Star Wars character is Poe Dameron, and that he was hyped to see Oscar Isaac, displaying a remarkably astute head for following Social Trends on such very young shoulders. Bless.
Tremblay met some of his faves, and was “having a blast” – Oscar, Michael B. Jordan, and self-proclaimed ‘Captain America’, Chris Evans.
After the show, little Jacob Tremblay got to hang with his hero some more! Nobody had a better night than this adorable young’un.
And THEN, just because Tremblay’s night couldn’t have got any better,
he got to have his very own lightsaber battle with the Galaxy’s Best Pilot, He Who Could Fly Anything, Poe Dameron himself!
3. Pedro PascalBest Friend Forever of Sarah Paulson, Pedro Pascal, has had his own Oscar for a while now, if pics of them together are anything to go by. Any vaguely capable Internet Sleuth will be able to hunt down a picture of them both together from their ‘youth’, in which both had extremely tragic haircuts, which OP does not wish to ruin this lovingly made post with.
This is ONE Industry Friendship that goes way way back, filled with barbequing, shenanigans, and Rooftop & Chill.
2. Gina RodriguezPrecious future probable star of Star Wars: Episode VIII, and current Jane the Virgin star, Gina Rodriguez, really was the toast of the Globes this year, looking and being flawless throughout. She also stirred that pot of SW Rumours even deeper when she tweeted out a pic a “Just [her] absolute favourite actor. Period.” 1. Elvira LindElvira Lind, Danish documentary film maker and director of Ryan Cassata trans youth love story documentary ’Songs For Alexis’, was the only Golden Globe attendee who not only actually has her own Oscar, but also walked home holding her own Oscar in hand.
Other Oscar-winning stars at the GG probably left their Oscars at home, not wanting to be tacky.
Upon announcing his win, Oscar Isaac leapt from his seat and kissed longtime girlfriend/partner Elvira, before heading off to massage Mark Ruffalo’s shoulders and collect his Golden Globe. Elvira is also well known on the internet for being constantly mistaken for Maria Miranda for the past 2-3 years, with her actual identity
‘confirmed’ recently to US Weekly, and discussed by ONTD in a Sleuthing post that didn’t get messy, but resulted in a Ms. Marple/Sherlock Holmes style investigative report in comments. Bless this qt low key couple. ♥
Bonus! The Golden Globe StatuetteNobody was happier to see Oscar on Golden Globe night than the Golden Globe itself. Long thought of by some as the ‘lesser’ of the two big awards shows, it was finally the Globe’s time to shine.
When Isaac was asked/told during Winners Press that he 'is proof that racism in Hollywood is basically over', it is also widely perhaps speculated that the statuette itself that Oscar was holding was pleased at his response to the contrary, his comments to which are at the end of this post.
