The nominations for the 95th Academy Awards have been confirmed, finally putting to bed weeks of speculation. Perhaps unsurprisingly, surreal sci-fi Everything Everywhere All at Once leads the pack for this year’s Oscars with 11 nominations.
Big budget blockbusters have also made their mark, as both Top Gun: Maverick and Avatar: The Way of Water have bagged themselves Best Film nods, the latter earning a nomination just days after crossing the $2 billion mark at the global box office. Colin Farrell, Brendan Fraser and Austin Butler will take part in a tight three-horse race for best actor, while Ana de Armas forces her way into the best actress category for her transformative performance in Marilyn Monroe biopic Blonde.
Rounding off his remarkable comeback story is The Goonies and Indiana Jones star Ke Huy Quan, who, after bagging himself a Golden Globe, earns a best supporting actor nomination for Everything Everywhere. Here, we break down the full list of nominations for the Oscar’s 2023.
