Felicity Jones says it is "wonderful" to receive a Best Actress Oscar nomination for her role in the Theory of Everything.

In the film, the 31-year-old portrays Jane Hawking, wife of Stephen Hawking, in a story that spans their 25 year relationship.

Jones said, "It was such a phenomenal story... (Stephen and Jane) really graciously let us into their lives so it was a very special story to be telling."

She added, "I got to know Jane so well that I had such affection for her. I feel like I'm absolutely sharing this nomination with her."
