Infographics: Gender inequality at Oscars

The 2015 Oscar nominations were criticized for gender inequality, something that's a far wider problem throughout the film industry. According to research conducted by the Telegraph, 102 nominees are men with an average age of 51 compared to just 25 women with an average age of 41. When it comes to voting members of the Academy, there's also a significant gender gap with 77 percent being male.

A lack of racial diversity is also blatantly obvious with no non-white actors nominated across the four acting categories. Out of 127 nominees, 118 are white and 9 are non-white. When it comes to Academy voting, the ethnicity ratio is 94 percent white and 6 percent non-white. One prediction is definitely accurate, however. You can expect middle-aged white men to take home the majority of the awards.
