Ridley Scott

The stylish director has been making feature films since the late '70s, but has only been nominated four times with zero wins. His last nomination was in 2016, when "The Martian" was nominated for best picture. His nominations for best director were for "Thelma & Louise," "Gladiator," and "Black Hawk Down." He could be up for a best director nomination for "All the Money in the World," which managed to replace Kevin Spacey with Christopher Plummer within a month of its release.
