Penelope Cruz, Stanley Tucci & Maggie Gyllenhaal's Oscar Gratitude

Penelope Cruz, Stanley Tucci and Maggie Gyllenhaal have all been nominated for this year's Academy Awards, and they're all sharing their excitement with ET!

Stanley is nominated for Best Supporting Actor for his turn as the twisted villain of 'The Lovely Bones,' and he says that he learned of his nomination through his publicist, who woke him up. "I said, 'Thank you, that's exciting,' and then I went back to sleep," he says with a laugh. "I was really happy. ... It's a dream of every actor to be nominated for an Academy Award"  He adds that the first people he called were his parents to share the good news, and then he called his friend Oliver Platt. 

Of good friend and co-star Meryl Streep's 16th nomination, he jokes, "Greedy. ... It wouldn't be an Academy Award show without Meryl being nominated."
