Oscar 2023 Nominations: Brendan Fraser, ‘Elvis,‘ and ’Everything Everywhere All at Once’ Earn Top Nods at Academy Awards

The oscar race officially begins today, Jan. 24, with the announcement of the nominees for the 95th Academy Awards. 

Oscar-winner Riz Ahmed and Allison Williams were tapped to reveal the nominees for all 23 categories during a special livestream broadcast from the Academy’s Samuel Goldwyn Theater.

Among the frontrunners for the 95th Academy Awards are the indie multi-verse smash Everything Everywhere All At Once, Steven Spielberg’s autobiographical drama The Fabelmans, Martin McDonagh’s portrait of a tortured friendship The Banshees of Inisherin, and Todd Field’s classical music saga Tár. Several blockbusters have also been angling for major nominations, including Top Gun: Maverick and Elvis.

The Oscars will take place on March 12, with Jimmy Kimmel set to return as host. Kimmel last hosted the show in 2018, which also happened to be the last time the Oscars had a single proper host; Kevin Hart backed out of the 2019 show, there was no official host in 2020 or 2021, and last year featured Regina Hall, Amy Schumer, and Wanda Sykes helming the show together.

Check back here for the full list of nominees.
