After a delay due to the impact caused by the LA fires, the 2025 Oscar nominations have been announced – and in the end it's Jacques Audiard's genre-bending musical Emilia Pérez which leads the way with 13 nominations.

There were several other films that scored multiple Academy Awards nods, with some of the highlights including The Brutalist and Wicked on 10 a piece and Conclave and A Complete Unknown on eight each.

Meanwhile, there were also notable nominations for the likes of Anora, Dune: Part Two and The Substance.

As ever, there were a couple of surprising omissions, with Jesse Eisenberg's A Real Pain unexpectedly left off the Best Picture list and a number of high-profile actresses, including Maria's Angelina Jolie and Babygirl's Nicole Kidman, missing out on nominations.

The announcements were read out by Bowen Yang and Rachel Sennott following a brief introduction by Academy president Janet Yang and CEO Bill Kramer, who acknowledged the tragic impact of the LA fires and said that the upcoming ceremony would "pay tribute to our brave first responders and celebrate the enduring spirit of Los Angeles and the film industry".

Even now that the nominations are here, it looks like being a rather close race for the coveted Best Picture prize – a far cry from last year, where eventual winner Oppenheimer was a clear and undisputed frontrunner for months in advance of the ceremony.

Read on for the full list of Oscars 2025 nominees.
