2025 Oscars Nominations: Full List

The 2025 Oscars nominees have been revealed.

At the Samuel Goldwyn Theater, Rachel Sennott and Bowen Yang announced who made the cut. Emilia Pérez, a musical film, leads with 13 nominations, including Best Picture and two nods for Best Original Song. Close on its heels is James Mangold’s Bob Dylan flick, A Complete Unknown, featuring Timothée Chalamet in an Oscar-nominated role. The movie version of Wicked, starring Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, also did well with both actresses getting nominated. Brady Corbet’s epic tale The Brutalist impressed too, with music by first-time nominee Daniel Blumberg.

In other music news, Dianne Warren hopes to finally win her first Oscar for “The Journey” from Six Triple Eight. She faces tough competition from Elton John and the songwriting duo Camille and Clément Ducol for Emilia Pérez. Also vying for the prize is Adrian Quesada of Black Pumas with his song “Like a Bird” from Sing Sing.

A year ago, Barbenheimer was all anyone talked about at the Oscars. It got an impressive 20 nominations between its two films. Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer took home many awards: Best Picture; Best Director; Cillian Murphy as Best Leading Actor; Robert Downey Jr. as Best Supporting Actor. Emma Stone won Best Leading Actress for her role in another top contender that year called Poor Things. Billie Eilish snagged Barbie’s only win for her song “What Was I Made For?”

I think we all love when our favorite movies get recognized at these big events.
