This year’s nominations are being announced by actor and writer Riz Ahmed and M3GAN star and producer Allison Willians. The pair will be announcing live from the Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Beverly Hills at 13.30 GMT. 

Ahmed himself is no stranger to Academy Awards, having nabbed an Oscar for Best Live Action Short Film in 2022 for The Long Goodbye. He also got a Best Actor nomination for Sound of Metal back at the 93rd Academy Awards. 

Williams was one of the main stars of Lena Dunham’s Girls on HBO and has made a name for herself in horror, starring in Jordan Peele’s Oscar-winning Get Out.

Could 2023's Oscars be the Year of the Sequel? Don't bet against it. Top Gun: Maverick, Avatar: The Way of Water and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever are all outside hopes to nab the Best Picture award. If all three make it on to the 10-strong Best Picture list, it'll be the first time in Academy history that multiple sequels have been nominated for the big prize in the same year.

We'll find out if that's the case in just under 30 minutes...

15 MINUTES TO GO

Competition is tight in the major categories, with a lot of different contenders vying for Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Supporting Actress. 

There are already some big favorites in the acting categories, with stars like Brendan Fraser, Ke Huy Quan, and Michelle Williams all expected to be nominated. But there are also plenty of underdogs as well – in particular we’ve been wondering whether Aftersun will get some Academy attention too.

In terms of Best Picture, we’re expecting to see nominations going to frontrunners like Everything Everywhere All At Once, The Banshees of Inisherin, and The Fabelmans. With the expanded number of nominees, Avatar: The Way of Water and Top Gun: Maverick are also potentials too. 

Finally the Best Director gong has some familiar names already in the running, like Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert and Steven Spielberg. But don’t discount Martin McDonagh (The Banshees of Inisherin), Todd Field (Tár), and Baz Luhrmann (Elvis), and Sarah Polley (Women Talking) just yet either. 

Of course, the Academy always has some surprises up its sleeve too, so there could be some unexpected nominations as well. Luckily, we haven’t got long to wait now…

It's showtime!
