The Oscar nominations are here.

Despite the debate over whether the big show should go on amid the devastation in Los Angeles from the wildfires, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences pressed ahead and the Academy Award nominees for 2025 were announced on Jan. 23.

The Oscar nominations were originally set to be announced on Jan. 17, but the date was postponed twice due to the Los Angeles County wildfires. A series of fires broke out beginning on Jan. 7, leaving at least 27 people dead and destroying more than 16,000 structures. Many events and TV productions were postponed or canceled.

While some actors, including Jean Smart, called for this year’s awards season to be canceled and for networks to donate to fire victims instead, the academy announced that the show would go on, with many people in the industry expressing the importance of getting back to work.

Rachel Sennott (Saturday Night, Shiva Baby) and Bowen Yang (Wicked, Saturday Night Live) helmed the early morning nominations ceremony at the academy’s Samuel Goldwyn Theater and announced the 23 categories. The presentation was livestreamed on Oscar.com, Oscars.org and the academy’s social media accounts, and aired on ABC’s Good Morning America.

Emilia Pérez led with the most nominations, 13, including Best Picture, Best Director (Jacques Audiard) Best Actress (Karla Sofía Gascón) and Best Supporting Actress (Zoe Saldaña). That was followed by The Brutalist and Wicked, which both had 10 nominations.

At the top of the show, Bill Kramer and Janet Yang, the academy’s CEO and president, respectively, acknowledged that it had been a difficult time amid the wildfires.

“During this year’s ceremony, we will honor the talented filmmakers nominated today, pay tribute to our brave first responders and celebrate the enduring spirit of Los Angeles and the film industry,” Kramer said.

The show is set to take place on March 2 at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood. Conan O’Brien will host.
