And here are the nominees…
After the Los Angeles wildfires delayed the initial date set for the 2025 Oscar nominations announcement, Saturday Night Live’s Bowen Yang and Bottoms star Rachel Sennott revealed who will be honored across 23 categories in a Jan. 23 livestream telecast.
The 97th Academy Awards ceremony, which will be hosted by Conan O’Brien, is set to honor films like A Real Pain, The Brutalist, Wicked and more. Plus, Bowen and Rachel proved their comedic chops amid the nominations announcement by complimenting each other on their pronunciation of the year’s most popular films.
The 2025 Oscar nominations come amid a difficult time for Hollywood. Earlier this month, the Los Angeles wildfires devastated much of the California city—including the home of Billy Crystal, who hosted the Oscars in 1988 and 1998. At the time, the Academy issued a statement reflecting on those who had been affected by the devastation.
