A24, Netflix, Universal

Nominations for the 97th Academy Awards were announced Thursday morning in a virtual ceremony hosted by Rachel Sennott and Bowen Yang.

This year’s race features an eclectic mix of critical darlings, blockbuster hits, and international standouts. “Emilia Pérez,” Netflix’s acclaimed crime musical, continues its historic awards run alongside other frontrunners like “Anora”and “Wicked.”

While these films dominated the conversation, the nominations also reflect the impact of recent challenges, including the devastating L.A. wildfires, which postponed the announcement date twice. Additionally, the Academy has revealed changes to the ceremony, including a reduced emphasis on live musical performances, opting instead to spotlight songwriters and a reflective theme honoring Los Angeles.

Hosted by Conan O’Brien, the 2025 Oscars will air on March 2 on ABC and Hulu, celebrating a year of diverse storytelling and cinematic achievements.
