The Oscar nominations will be announced this week, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences said. The noms were pushed back several times due to the LA wildfires but will be revealed by actor-writer-comedians Rachel Sennott and Bowen Yang in a ceremony that will be live-streamed on various platforms.
According to IST, Oscars 2025 nominations will be announced on January 23 at 7.00 pm.
The announcement will take place on Thursday in a live presentation from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' Samuel Goldwyn Theater. The two actor-writer-comedians will announce nominees in all 24 Oscar categories. The announcement will also be live-streamed globally on Oscar.com, Oscars.org and the Academy's digital platforms. It will also be broadcast on ABC's Good Morning America and stream on ABC News Live, Disney+ and Hulu.
The announcement of the 97th Oscar nominations was initially scheduled for January 17, but was pushed back to January 19 due to wildfires that erupted two weeks ago, damaging countless structures in Los Angeles and affecting many Oscar voters. As a result, the Academy prolonged the voting period and the following announcement by two days, as per The Hollywood Reporter.
As the fires continued to burn in Los Angeles, the Academy adjusted the calendar once more, extending the voting period to January 17, moving the announcement date to January 23, and cancelling the Oscar Nominees Luncheon. Conan O'Brien will host the 97th Oscar telecast, which will take place as planned on March 2 at the Dolby Theatre, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
