The 2025 Academy Award Nominations


From the Los Angeles Times:

The nominations for the 2025 Oscars were originally scheduled to be announced Jan. 17 but were postponed amid the multiple wildfires that have ravaged Los Angeles. While the delay extended the voting period for the nominations, the 97th Oscars ceremony will still be held March 2 at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, with a live telecast on ABC and Hulu.
