Riz Ahmed and Allison Williams announced the 95th Oscar nominations on Tuesday. It is the most competitive it has been for the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in years.
Two billion-dollar-grossing films are in the running for Best Picture: Top Gun: Maverick and Avatar: The Way of Water. With both films being sequels, it’s a pretty impressive feat to gain so much popularity at the box office and get nominated.
Rhianna and Lady Gaga are set to perform their nominated songs for Wakanda Forever and Top Gun: Maverick, respectively. Both artists are up against Diane Warren, who is up for yet another award, this time for Tell It Like A Woman.
Everything Everywhere All At Once has scored 11 nominations. If the film wins all 11 awards, it will be tied with the most Oscar wins with Ben-Hur (1959), Titanic (1997), and Lord of the Rings: Return of the King (2003). Ke Huy Quan and Michelle Yeoh were both nominated, becoming the first Asian actress nominated for Best Actress. Searchlight’s The Banshees of Inisherin and Netflix’s All Quiet on the Western Front has nine nominations. The Netflix war film is a remake of the 1930s film, which won two Oscars.
With a wide range of films from big studios to streamers and some indies, here is the complete list of nominations:
