Fans and movie buffs can prepare for the 2025 Oscars featuring a diverse lineup of nominees and a new host.
The highlight of the evening will undoubtedly be the ceremony itself, which takes place at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood. Hosted for the first time by Conan O'Brien, the event promises to be filled with surprises as the film industry celebrates its finest talent.
Leading the pack in nominations is "Emilia Pérez," making history as the most-nominated non-English language film with 13 nods, including Best Picture and Best Actress for Karla Sofía Gascón, who also holds a notable position as the first trans actor nominated in this category. The film has stirred controversy following problematic past online remarks made by the lead actress, yet remains a strong contender amidst the buzz.
In the running for Best Picture alongside "Emilia Pérez," we find "The Brutalist" and "Wicked," both with 10 nominations, as well as "Conclave" with 8 nominations. The competition is fierce in the acting categories as well—Demi Moore receives her first Oscar nomination for her role in "The Substance," competing against rising stars like Mikey Madison, whose performance in "Anora" has gained significant traction.
This year's ceremony will pay homage to the impact of the wildfires in Los Angeles, as the Academy has promised recognition of the community's struggles throughout the event. Performances include a medley from "Wicked" by Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, alongside other musical acts.
As for viewing options, audiences can catch the event live on March 3, 2025, available via ABC and streaming through Hulu in the U.S., or outside of the U.S. on multiple platforms. For the UK audience, ITV and ITVX will host a delayed broadcast.
Overall, the 2025 Oscars is shaping up to be a memorable night, ready to spotlight talent and celebrate cinematic achievements while reflecting on pressing social concerns.
