It’s almost time for the 96th Academy Awards! On Sunday, Mar. 10, Hollywood’s biggest names of the year will gather at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California to hand out those coveted gold statues. This year, Christopher Nolan’s epic biopic Oppenheimer leads in nominations with a whopping 13 nods, Yorgos Lanthimos’ quirky comedy Poor Things is in second place with 11 nods and Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon takes third with 10. Greta Gerwig’s box office record-breaker Barbie earned eight nominations, including for Best Picture, but both Gerwig and the film’s lead actress and producer, Margot Robbie, were notably not nominated in their respective categories.
The Oscars will see performances of all five of the original songs nominated this year, including a much-anticipated live performance of “I’m Just Ken” from Ryan Gosling. The awards show will also have a star-studded slate of presenters, which includes Zendaya, Nicolas Cage, Jamie Lee Curtis, Brendan Fraser, Matthew McConaughey, Michelle Yeoh and Al Pacino.
