And The Oscar goes to…
The 96th Annual Academy Awards are here and the world will finally see who will win the battle of Barbenheimer — or maybe another film will shock viewers and take out Best Picture.
Following a strike that pushed the releases of a number of movies and successes of films like Barbie to Oppenheimer, 2023 may have been an unusual year for the entertainment industry — but still one with a number of great performances and critically-beloved titles.
The 96th Oscars will be hosted by Jimmy Kimmel at the Dolby Theatre at Ovation Hollywood, airing live March 10 on ABC. It will be Kimmel’s fourth time in the hosting role.
Oppenheimer, Barbie, Killers of the Flower Moon, The Holdovers and Poor Things all scored nominations in the Best Picture category and for the most part, received nominations in all the big categories.
Along with Best Picture, Barbie is nominated in Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Supporting Actress for America Ferrera, and Supporting Actor for Ryan Gosling, however, failed to earn noms for its star Margot Robbie and director Greta Gerwig.
This year, The Academy could potentially make history in two categories, as Lily Gladstone is the first Native American woman to be nominated for best actress at the Academy Awards for her work in Killers of the Flower Moon. While at 81, Martin Scorsese could make history after becoming the oldest directing nominee.
