The 2024 Oscar winners: Full list

The 96th Academy Awards on Sunday night has arrived with Jimmy Kimmel hosting for the fourth time. 

The most prestigious night in film is being held at Los Angeles' Dolby Theatre. This year's nominees are a strong showcase of the excellent year in film that exceeded box office expectations. Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer" dominated the nominations with 13 nods, with films like "Poor Things," "Killers of the Flower Moon" and "Barbie" trailing behind. 

While 2023 was a tough year for the industry as a whole with dual labor strikes shutting down film and television productions entirely, the industry was also dealing with slow returns to the movies due to COVID-19-related effects and an unexpected humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Local law enforcement authorities have even increased security due to planned organized anti-war protests proposing to halt the Oscars. Other historic moments could also happen during the evening like the potential first-ever Native American actress to win best actress for Lily Gladstone's performance in "Killers of the Flower Moon."

Despite the tumultuous year, the nominated and winning films and performers underline that stories are only getting bigger and better as audiences are having fun at the movies again.
