The 93rd annual Academy Awards ceremony will take place on Sunday, April 25, which would tell aliens everything they need to know if they were touching down on planet Earth out of the blue: something went very, very amiss over the past year. The movie industry has struggled over the past year, but they’re still rallying to honor the best of the best, even though very few movies have arrived in theaters since January 2020. So… Birds Of Prey and Tenet for best picture?
Not quite. Expect Nomadland to score several nominations, given that it went in hard at the recent Globes ceremony, and other likely suspects will include several films that scored accolades on streaming, including Promising Young Woman, The Trial of the Chicago 7, Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, One Night in Miami…, Minari, and Judas and the Black Messiah. We’ll probably never see an other Oscars like this one (which might possibly never be more accurate a statement than during this year), and anything can happen this year. To that end, the nominations are being revealed by Priyanka Chopra Jonas (White Tiger) and recent SNL host (and husband to Priyanka) Nick Jonas. Here’s the full list of nominations (as updated) below:
