This annual ceremony begins on Sunday, March 10th, at 7 p.m. EST at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. TV personality Jimmy Kimmel will be hosting the event for the fourth time.

Notable nominees include Cillian Murphy for Best Actor in Oppenheimer, Ryan Gosling for Best Supporting Actor in Barbie, and Emma Stone for Best Actress in Poor Things. Other esteemed actors up for nominations are Carey Mulligan, Bradley Cooper, and Annette Bening.
Simultaneously released on July 21st, 2023, fueling the “Barbenheimer” cultural phenomenon, Barbie and Oppenheimer collectively amassed an impressive 21 nominations. Barbie secured eight nominations, while Oppenheimer received 13. However, for Barbie, many were surprised that Margot Robbie did not receive a nomination for Best Actress and that Greta Gerwig was not nominated for Best Director.
This year marks a milestone for ten actors—America Ferrera, Emily Blunt, Cillian Murphy, Lily Gladstone, Sterling K. Brown, Danielle Brooks, Colman Domingo, Sandra Hüller, Jeffrey Wright, and Da’Vine Joy Randolph—as they receive their first Academy Award nominations.
