In December 2022, actor James McAvoy said that campaigning for an Oscar "felt cheap" and refused to do so to land a nomination for his work on 'Atonement'.

"I didn't want to play that part. I'll push the film, I'll try and get bums on seats. But the campaign, I felt... I felt cheap," he told British GQ.

McAvoy did not receive a nod for his acting but 'Atonement' went on to score 7 nominations at the Academy Awards including Best Picture and Best Supporting Actress for Saoirse Ronan. The Joe Wright-directed movie took an Oscar for Best Original Score, reported Deadline.

Although McAvoy would not campaign for himself, he is more than happy to do it for his fellow co-stars which led Forest Whitaker to get a nod for his work on 'The Last King of Scotland'.
