So, who are the front runners in each category? We'll start with Best Picture, where we expect to see The Brutalist, Conclave, Dune: Part Two, Wicked, Emilia Pérez, A Complete Unknown, A Real Pain, Sing Sing, and The Substance.

For Best Actor, we're likely to see Adrien Brody (The Brualist), Ralph Fiennes (Conclave), Daniel Craig (Queer), Colman Domingo (Sing Sing), and Timothée Chalamet (A Complete Unknown), though there's also a good chance Sebastian Stan (The Apprentice/A Different Man) could be nominated.

As for Best Actress, that's likely to be Demi Moore (The Substance), Mikey Madison (Anora), Cynthia Erivo (Wicked), Marianne Jean-Baptiste (Hard Truths), and Fernanda Torres (I'm Still Here). Other possibilities include Angelina Jolie (Maria) or Pamela Anderson (The Last Showgirl).

Continuing with the predictions, let's take a look at Best Director. We're expecting Brady Corbet (The Brutalist), Jacques Audiard (Emilia Pérez), Sean Baker (Anora), Payal Kapadia (All We Imagine as Light), and Edward Berger (Conclave). But, we could also see James Mangold (A Complete Unknown).

One director we're hoping – but not necessarily expecting – to see nominated is Denis Villeneuve for Dune: Part Two. However, the odds aren't looking good, and Villeneuve was snubbed for his first Dune movie. Here's hoping he manages to nab a nod th🔥is year.

And now let's look at Best Supporting Actor. We're expecting to see Kieran Culkin (A Real Pain), Guy Pearce (The Brutalist), Yura Borisov (Anora), and Edward Norton (A Complete Unknown).

The fifth spot is harder to predict. We're hoping to see Denzel Washington (Gladiator 2), though, after his 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:surprise BAFTA snub, we're less sure his nomination is a lock. We could also potentially see Jeremy Strong (The Apprentice), which would make for a Succession reunion with Culkin. Then there's Jonathan Bailey (Wicked), who scored a SAG nomination. But, it could just as well be Clarence Maclin (Sing Sing).

How about Best Supporting Actress? Zoe Saldaña (Emilia Pérez) is a lock, while Ariana Grande (Wicked) is also very lওikely. Beyond that, it feels wide open.

There's Jamie Lee Curtis (The Last Showgirl), Monica Barbaro (A Complete Unknown), Isabella Rossellini (Conclave), Margaret Qualley (The Substance), Danielle Deadwyler (The Piano Lesson), and Selena Gomez (Emilia Pérez), Felicity Jones (The Brutalist), and Adriana Paz (Emilia Pérez) all in🍷 contention. It's anyone's guess at this point.

Now, let's look at the actual ceremony itself. When will the Oscars 2025 be held? They'll be taking place on Sunday, March 2 at the Dolby Theatre Hollywood, and you'll be able to watch from 7pm ET/4pm PT/midnight GMT.

And how about this year's host? After last year was once again presented by Jimmy Kimmel, this year will be hosted by another late night star: Conan O'Brien.

Let's spotlight one potential nominee in particular: Sebastian Stan. He has good chances of making it into the🎐 Best Actor category, but, curiously enough, for two 𝐆different movies.

Stan is the star of both A Different Man and The Apprentice, garnering awards attention for both. He won the Golden Globe for A Different Man but was nominated across two categories (comedy and drama) for both performances – and he scored a BAFTA nomination for The Apprentice. However, he didn't pick up any SAG nominat💦ions, which means he might not cross the line to an Oscar nod.

And for another spotlight, let's look at Demi Moore. She seems a lock for a Best Actress nomination for her role in The Substance, which would be extr💫a meaningful after her Golden♕ Globes speech.

"Thirty years ago, I had a producer tell me that I was a 'popcorn' actress and at that time, I made that mean that this wasn't something that I was allowed to have, that I could do movies tha𓆏t were successful, that made ♈a lot of money, but that I couldn't be acknowledged," she said. "I bought in, and I believed that, and that corroded me over time, to the point where I thought a few years ago that maybe this was it, maybe I was complete. I've done what I was supposed to do. And as I was at kind of a low point, I had this magical, bold, courageous, out-of-the-box, absolutely bonkers script come across my desk called The Substance, and the universe told me that you're not done."

The countdown is on!

We've got an hour to go now ahead of the nominations, and the pressure is he🅷ating up. This year, the lucky nominees will be announced by Bottoms actor Rachel Sennott and SNL star Bowen Yang from the Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Beverly Hills. Yang is a pretty interesting choice because he starred in Wicked so could be part of a nominated film if the movie gets picked for the Best Picture category. We'll have to wait and see on that one…

While we wait for the nominations, let's take a little trip down memory lane to the big winners of last year's ceremony too. 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Oppenheimer stole the👍 night at the 2024 Oscars, winning Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actor, among other prizes. Poor Things also had a decent show and Emma Stone scooped🥀 the Best Actress award.

Stand-out moments of the night included Ryan Gosling performing 'I'm Just Ken' as well as some emotional speeche𓄧s from Da'Vine Joy Randolph and Robert Downey Jr. Let's hope the 2025 Oscars brings the same level when it airs in March.

One thing that will be different at this year's Oscars will be the lack of Best Original Song performances. The Academy has confirmed that all of the nominees will not perform as they have in previous years. This was confirmed in a letter sent out to Academy members seen by . They report that instead of performances, the ceremony will instead "spotlight the songwriters through personal reflections and behind-the-scenes insiဣghts from the creative teams behind the music".

Hopefully we'll still have some performances on the night, but this does mean we might have been robbed of a Kneecap performance🎃 at the Oscars. Devastating.

This year will also mark the return of five presenters introducing nominees in major categories before the winner is announced. It's a sweet tradition which calls o🌸n past winners to introduce nominees they often have a connection with. Last year some of those announcing include Charlize Theron, Michelle Yeoh, Matthew McConaughey, and Forest Whitaker. We'd be surprised if this year's line-up didn't include some of 2024's winners.

Now, it's pretty tricky to say who won't be nominated at the 2025 Oscars as every year there are big surprises. However, we do know that some 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:major movies 𝄹are ineligible for the major awards. This is because they don't meet the criteria set forth by the Academy, which may𒆙 be based on the diversity and inclusion criteria or could be down to them not being released in theaters for longꦏ enough. Among those ineligible for the Best Picture category are Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Madame Web, Andrea Arnold’s Bird, which stars Barry Keoghan, and Anna Kendrick’s directorial debut Woman of the Hour.

As well as these, the Razzies give us some indication of who may not be picked for the top awards this year too. Billed as the anti-Oscars, they nominate movies they consider to be the worst, rather than the best. Among the fiꦜlms up for that in 2025 are Madame Web, Borderlands, and Joker: Folie &agra🐟ve; Deux. Ouch.

Earlier today, what nomination would make them jump out of their seats if it happened today, and the replies did not disappoint. Among the selections were Hugh Grant for his chilling performance in horror movie Heretic, Challengers for Best Or🌜iginal Score, and Fernanda Torres for I'm Still Here. It's not l😼ong until we find out if any of those are right…

We've hit the 10 minute countdown fol🃏ks! So make sure you've got this page up and your snacks r🍃eady, it's almost showtime.

We're just five minutes away from the nomina🅷tions beginning, so grab your popcorn and get ready!

And that's a wrap on the nominations! All of the categories have now been announced, which means we now know Emilia Pérez is the most nominated film of the year, nabbing 13 nods. Next is The Brutalist and Wicked with 10, then Conclave and A Complete Unknown with 8 each.

There were some pretty big snubs and surprises in the line-up this y🥂ear. Let's start with the more positive side, some of the surprise nominees included Nickel Boys for Best Picture, Sebastian Stan for his performance in The Apprentice rather than A Different Man, and Jeremy Strong landing a nomination for The Apprentice.

Now for the snubs… Among those mi💜ssing out where Denis Villeneuve for Best Director, even if Dune: Part Two didꦑ get a Best Picture nomination. A Real Pain also missed out on a Best Picture nomination, which is a bit of a surprise.

In the acting categories,🍎 we had expected to see Denzel Washington get a nomination for Gladiator 2, but the biggest omission in that Best Supporting Actor category has to be Clarence Maclin for Sing Sing. Meanwhile, in the Best Supporting Actress category Jamie Lee Curtis missed out for The Last Showgirl.

Daniel Craig was also pushed out of the conversation aft💧er failing to land a nomination for Queer and Marianne Jean-Baptiste missed out on a Best Actress꧟ nomination for Hard Truths.
