The actor previously said he thinks the latest installment has Oscar glory in its future.

“It will probably win best picture at the Oscars, unless the Oscars don’t want to be relevant ever,” he said earlier this month. “This will win best picture…There is nothing that will ever come close to the power of this thing.”
