Last year’s Oscars ceremony marked the mood with the controversy over the Best Actor Oscar, won by Anthony Hopkins, where many were expecting Chadwick Boseman. And this year the 94th Oscars will be held, with the various nominations for all categories announced yesterday.
And the nominees are…
As reported by our colleagues at CNN, the nominations for the 94th Academy Awards have been announced and include films across a variety of genres. Last year it was the streaming platform Netflix that got people talking with its seven wins, but also the film Nomadland, directed by Chloé Zhao, to which we owe last year’s film The Eternals.
And for this year 2022, it is the film The Power of the Dog that takes first place among the nominated films with 12 nominations. Director Jane Campion made history by becoming the first woman to receive more than one Best Director nomination, having previously been nominated for the 1994 film The Piano Lesson.
In addition, Steven Spielberg, also nominated in this category, set a new record. As the director and co-producer of the film West Side Story, which received seven nominations, Spielberg has now produced 11 films that were nominated for Best Picture, a new Oscar record.
This Oscars ceremony will take place on March 27, 2022, and last month it was announced that after three years without them, the ceremony would finally have a host. The last time a celebrity took the stage to host the event was in 2018 with Jimmy Kimmel. And while it’s not yet clear who the star presenter will be, it looks like the academy is considering bringing multiple presenters on stage at once, according to the New York Post. In the meantime, here is the list of nominations for the 2022 Oscars:
