Here are the nominees for the 2022 Oscars

The Oscars will return for its second post-quarantine year next month, and the list of nominees for the 94th annual ceremony is officially here. This year’s list includes Belfast, Dune, Drive My Car, Licorice Pizza, The Power Of The Dog, The Lost Daughter, and King Richard, among others.

The Power Of The Dog and Dune lead the list with 12 nominations and 10 nominations respectively. Belfast and West Side Story are next up with seven nominations each.

Spencer didn’t nab a nomination for Best Picture, but Kristen Stewart did score her very first Oscars nomination for her role in the film. Kirsten Dunst also landed herself a first-time nomination for The Power Of The Dog, and Jane Campion’s Best Director nomination has made her the first woman to be nominated in the category twice.

Last year, the awards ceremony was moved from its usual home at the luxe Dolby Theatre to Union Station in Downtown Los Angeles. At the time, the move was a way to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. This year, though, the Oscars will return to Hollywood Blvd.

Though the Oscars ceremony is returning to normalcy in some ways, there are still a couple of big changes to expect that night. This year, there are 10 films nominated for Best Picture. In past years, there have been about eight or nine Best Picture nominees.

The other change? Well, though the annual ceremony has been without a host the last few years, the Academy has promised the return of emcees this time around. However, no official host has been announced yet.

This year, the Oscars nominees were announced at an event led by Tracee Ellis Ross and Leslie Jordan. The 94th Academy Awards ceremony will air on ABC on March 27 at 8 p.m. ET. The list of nominees is below and the complete list can be found here.
