Scarlett Johansson is almost too easy!
Scarlett Johansson in Marriage Story > Scarlett worked with Karen Gillian in Avengers: Endgame > Karen Gillian worked with Kurt Russell in Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 2 > Kurt Russell worked with Disney on Follow Me, Boys.

If i’m gonna be honest…Toy Story 4 did not deserve to win. The 3rd How to Train Your Dragon movie was better story and execution wise. This was a year when I was not rooting for Disney and was actually disappointed they won. Of course I didn’t watch the Oscars cuz I honestly don’t care what a bunch of rich spoiled brats think about politics or how we should live our lives.
Saoirse Ronan is even easier
Saoirse Ronan >Atonement with Keira Knightley>who was in Pirates, Star Wars, and Nutcracker!

Rene Zellweger deserved to win Best Actress as the role in Judy, plus a great speech to pay homage to the great Judy Garland. That movie was very inspiring.
