How to see the Academy Awards and who is nominated

The stars, cinema fans and fashionistas rejoice as the biggest night in the show calendar is finally here: the 97th Oscar.

Musical in Spanish Emilia Pérez He leads the way with 13 nominations, but recently I saw your damaged awards opportunities After historical offensive tweets of its star resurfaced.

Wicked, The brutalist, Conclave and Aor They are also among the main contestants, with the race for the best image too close to call.

The American comedian Conan O’Brien presents the Los Angeles awards, with the show from 4:00 p.m. (PT), 19:00 (ET) and Midnight (GMT).

You can also expect many references during the night to the forest fires that devastated Los Angeles and Left thousands of houses destroyed.

These are all the main points of conversation and things to take into account at the ceremony, since an agitated awards season comes to an end.

Emilia PérezOn a Mexican drug trafficker that changes gender, it has 13 nominations in total, including the best film, the best actress (Karla Sofía Gascón) and the best support actress (Zoe Saldaña).

It is the most nominated non -English language film of all time. Actually, it is a French production, largely established in Mexico, with Spanish as the main language that is spoken.

The nomination of Karla Sofía Gascón made her the first trans person to be nominated in a category of action (although Elliot Page was nominated for Juno in 2008, before the actor made the transition).

However, the movie, which had It already caused controversy in Mexico – He has been harassed by the controversy after a row of social networks that involves Gascón.

Emilia Pérez is still strong in a couple of categories, but it is unlikely that sweeping the board in the way Oppenheimer, who also had 13 nominations, did it last year.

Chasing Emilia Pérez with 10 nods is three and a half epic The brutalistStarring Adrien Brody.

Wicked It also has 10 nominations, even for the British actress Cynthia Erito and her co -star Ariana Grande, while Demi Moore has the first Oscar nomination of her career for her role in her role in The substance.

Meanwhile, Pope selection drama Conclave It has eight nominations, including the best actor of its British star Ralph Fiennes.

All top movies are ready for the coveted prize for the best film, and come together AorAbout a New York stripper who falls in love with the son of a rich Russian.

The film, which has six nominations, jumped ahead in the race After a series of precursors wins in the Choice Awards critics, as well as two main ceremonies of the guild: Guild of America and Producers Guild of America Awards.

But there is no consensus about what the Superior Prize will finally win, with the other contestants for the best image, including A complete stranger, Dune: Part two, I’m still here and Nickel guys.

This has been an unpredictable awards season, and there could still be many surprises in the store.

In the category of Best Actress, Moore, 62, is nominated for playing a star that vanishes that exchanges his body for a younger and more beautiful version of herself in itself in The substance.

But it is a tight race.

There were gasps behind the scenario in the buffas (where I was) when Aor The star Mikey Madison won the award of the best actress.

It was a great blow to the assumed impulse of the Oscar for Moore, and an incredible moment for Madison, which was relatively unknown before his role in Anora.

This is exactly the type of history of rags to wealth that the awards ceremonies love, and the film itself celebrates.

The best actor can also be in the air. Adrian Brody is the favorite, with his assent to The brutalist – But Timothée Chalamet is its most difficult competition, thanks to its acclaimed representation of Bob Dylan in A complete stranger.

Last week, the winning surprise of Chalamet Sag shook his race, after his eccentric awards campaign.

If I won, not only Brody’s winning streak would stop, but also take Brody’s record as the youngest winner of the best actor.

In the category of best support actor, Kieran Culkin is the favorite for A real painWhile Zoe Saldaña is almost certain that he will win the best cast actress for Emilia PérezHaving taken the trophy in a series of precursor events, including BAFTA, SAG Awards and Gold Balloons.

It is worth noting that a decade has passed since the hashtag #OSCARSSOWHITE began to trend, due to the lack of diversity in the 2015 Academy Awards.

This year, there are people of color both in the best actress and in the best categories of actors.

In fact, SING’S SING’S Colman Domingo is nominated for the best leading actor for the second consecutive year.

Otherwise, however, progress is still slow.

Coralie Fargeat is the only woman nominated for the best director, to The substanceof a five field.

“Has there been progress, yes?

“It was never that the Oscars were not black enough. It was also a genre, age, class, sexuality and geography.”

“If we can still tell them on the one hand, then we are not there yet.”

Most nominees adorn the red carpet; I am already betting, we will see more tears and the hand of Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande.

There had been a great question sign about whether Karla Sofía Gascón will appear after row on her previous tweets.

However, it has been confirmed that he will attend the Oscar ceremony, although it remains to be seen if he walks through the red carpet and sits with his co -star.

The presenters include Halle Berry, Whoopi Goldberg, Robert Downey Jr, Cillian Murphy, Da’vine Joy Randolph and Emma Stone.

This year’s Oscar career has developed in the gloomy backdrop of devastating forest fires in Los Angeles.

The nominations themselves were postponed twice Due to fires.

There is no doubt that it will be difficult for the awards to achieve the right tone when so many people are suffering. Do not feel good with the celebrities flaunting their wealth on the red carpet.

However, canceling the entire event was “never on the table,” according to Lynette Howell Taylor, a British film producer and a member of the Board of Governors of the Academy, who lost his own home in the fires.

She told me that “it would definitely be a recognition of what the city has happened” during the ceremony, with clear signage of support mechanisms and ways to donate.

“But ultimately, the program will be about the celebration of the films of the year, as it is every year,” he said.

This year, the Academy has eliminated the original song nominees during the ceremony.

Instead, Wicked The star and big stars will perform a mixture of songs from the film during the Oscar ceremony, which will last 10 minutes.

I can see social networks entering a collapse due to the defense of gravity, but it remains to be seen if the duo can recreate the energy of Ryan Gosling’s viral performance of I’M Just Ken last year.

Doja Cat, Lisa de Blackpink, Queen Latifah and Raye will be among the other artists during the ceremony.

The Academy’s Awards ceremony is organized this year for the first time by the comedian and Podcaster Conan O’Brien.

He replaces us to the night presenter of us, Jimmy Kimmel, who has presented the program four times, including last year.

The 2025 Oscar will be broadcast live on Sunday, March 2 from the Dolby Theater in Hollywood, where the ceremony was held since 2002.

The program can be seen in the USA. In ABC and can be transmitted in Hulu. It is also being transmitted worldwide in more than 200 territories.

The viewers of the United Kingdom can see on ITV and ITVX from 22:30 GMT.

Cynthia Erito is the first British black woman to receive two Oscar nominations for the performance, after being nominated for Harriet in 2020.

If the best actress wins this time, for playing Elphaba in WickedIt will become an ego, having completed the Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony awards.

Ralph Fiennes is flying the flag in the category of best actor with his first nomination for 28 years. He is recognized for playing a cardinal who supervises the selection of a new Pope in Conclave.

In another place, Felicity Jones is nominated for the best cast actress for The brutalist – A decade after his first Oscar nomination, while Sir Elton John is in the best race of original songs.

The country will also be supporting two more screen legends: Wallace and Gromit (and its manufacturers Aardman Animations), who expect their fourth Oscar. They are preselected for the best animated function for their last exit, Revenge most birds.
