95th Oscars Academy Awards: Full List of Nominees

This year’s nominees have been revealed for the 95th Oscars, honouring the very best in the film industry of the last year.

The nominees for the 95th Oscars have been announced. With the world re-emerging from the pandemic, 2023 saw a slew of films about film, with the likes of Steven Spielberg’s The Fabelmans encapsulating the majesty of cinema through the eyes of youth, whilst Sam Mendes’ Empire of Light showed the beauty of the cinema, and Damien Chazelle’s Babylon found fault with the troubled history of film.

It is though, Everything Everywhere All at Once, directed by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert that showed moviegoers the true meaning of the multiverse, garnering 11 nominations including two for Supporting Actresses, Jamie Lee Curtis and Stephanie Hsu.

The live 95th Oscars ceremony is scheduled to take place on Sunday 12th March with Late Night host, Jimmy Kimmel set to return for his third stint hosting the show.

Edward Berger’s All Quiet on the Western Front continues to make noise with a deserved 8 nominations, whilst Top Gun: Maverick continues to fly high with 6 nominations, including Best Original Song and Best Film Editing. 

Following his revitalising performance in this year’s The Whale directed by Darren Aronofsky, nominated for 3 Oscars, Brendan Fraser is favoured to walk away with the Best Actor in a Leading Role award, having already won Best Actor at this year’s Critics Choice Awards.

James Cameron’s Avatar: The Way of Water failed to make waves this time around, securing only 4 nominations, but failing to be nominated for Best Director, despite its predecessor being nominated for 9 awards back in 2010 at the 82nd Academy Awards. The film led that year’s nomination count with 11.

Steven Spielberg receives his 12th nomination for Best Picture, a record for an individual producer (since 1951 when producers
were first named as nominees). He ties William Wyler, at 13 films each, as the director of the most films nominated for Best
Picture. Spielberg’s ninth nomination for Directing ties him with Martin Scorsese for most nominations in the Directing
category for a living person (only William Wyler, with 12 Directing nominations, has more).

All Quiet on the Western Front is the eighth non-English language film to be nominated for both International Feature Film and
Best Picture in the same year. Each of the previous films (Z, 1969; Life Is Beautiful, 1998; Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon,
2000; Amour, 2012; Roma, 2018; Parasite, 2019; and Drive My Car, 2021) won for International Feature Film. To date, Parasite is the only film to also win Best Picture.

The Directing nomination for Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert is the fifth time two credited directors have been nominated
for the same film. Past nominations were for Robert Wise and Jerome Robbins, who won with West Side Story (1961); Warren
Beatty and Buck Henry for Heaven Can Wait (1978); Joel and Ethan Coen, who won with No Country for Old Men (2007), and
were nominated for True Grit (2010).
