Universal Studios to Display Props From Oscar Nominees

Universal Studios will display the costumes from the Academy Award nominated films Milk and Frost/Nixon alongside props from Hellboy II: The Golden Army, which was also nominated for an Academy Award, as part of the "Universal Experience: Behind the Scenes of Universal Pictures" attraction. The attraction celebrates Universal Pictures' award-winning films throughout the studio's impressive history. It is updated each year during the Oscar season to reflect newly nominated films.

Items newly on exhibit include the wardrobe worn by Frost/Nixon's Frank Langella, who is up for Best Actor, as well as the clothing worn by his counterpart Michael Sheen during the film's famous interview scenes. The vintage attire sported by another Best Actor nominee, Milk's Sean Penn, will also be on display.

Hellboy II, which was nominated for Best Makeup, will be featured in the attraction, too. Park visitors can view a display of original prosthetic masks, props, and costumes that were used in the film.
