A version of this story about Peter Ramsey appeared in the Down to the Wire issue of TheWrap?s Oscar magazine. For Peter Ramsey, it?s weird to think about the fact that he?s the first black director to be nominated for Best Animated Feature. But it?s nowhere near as weird as the fact that his film ?Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse? has become such a big critical and audience hit that it is now the favorite to win an Oscar that has been dominated by Disney and Pixar over the past decade.
