"I'm hoping to get an Oscar for this. I don't want to jinx it, but there's a real Oscar buzz around the film. A lot of people have been talking about Oscars. They're saying that I might get one. Hopefully, I'll get an Oscar and if I don't get it, I might not make films anymore," contactmusic.com quoted Brand as saying.

"I think effort should be rewarded at the Oscars, because how are we supposed to say to kids it's the trying that counts, if then I don't get an Oscar it's going to disappoint a lot of kids... If I don't get one, I'll say, 'Hold on, I'm trying my hardest, so how about an Oscar? It's only a little thing, make me an extra one. A new category - try that," he said.
