The nominations for the Oscars 2025 were announced on Thursday, following delays due to the fires in Los Angeles. The coveted film awards ceremony will take place on Sunday, March 2, in Hollywood.

Leading the field of nominees at the Oscars 2025 is the film "Emilia Pérez" with 13 nominations. Following behind are the fictional biography "The Brutalist" and the Disney musical "Wicked", each with 10 chances of winning. The Vatican thriller "Conclave" by Edward Berger received eight nominations.

Oscars 2025: Austrian-Swiss Edward Berger in Good Standing

The Austrian-Swiss director is once again in a good position in the Oscar race, as his anti-war film "All Quiet on the Western Front" was honored with four awards at the 2023 ceremony, including for best international film. His adaptation of the novel of the same name by Robert Harris is now nominated for best film, and Ralph Fiennes (lead actor) and Isabella Rossellini (supporting actress) can also hope for an award. The only downside for Berger: he will have to wait longer for a director nomination.

In tandem, the Bob Dylan biopic "Like A Complete Unknown" by James Mangold, starring young star Timothée Chalamet in the lead role, joined Berger's dramatic church crime story. Both works, along with "Emilia Pérez", "Wicked" and "The Brutalist", are also nominated for best film. The list of ten candidates is completed by the sci-fi epic "Dune: Part Two", the Brazilian drama "I'm Still Here", and "Anora", "Nickel Boys" and "The Substance".

Tough Race in the Acting Categories at the Oscars 2025

Competing for a trophy in the lead actor category are Adrien Brody ("The Brutalist"), Colman Domingo for "Sing Sing", Sebastian Stan as young Donald Trump in "The Apprentice" and Timothée Chalamet ("Like A Complete Unknown"). Many consider rising star Chalamet the favorite. In the women's category, Karla Sofía Gascón as the lead actress of the trans musical "Emilia Pérez", Cynthia Erivo for "Wicked", Mikey Madison for "Anora", Fernanda Torres for "I'm Still Here" and Hollywood veteran Demi Moore for "The Substance" are competitors, with Moore having a good chance of winning her first Oscar.

Oscars 2025 without a Film from Austria

In the race for the Oscar for best international film is "The Seed of the Holy Fig Tree" by the Germany-based director Mohammad Rasoulof. The native Iranian is competing here with the omnipresent "Emilia Pérez", the Danish production "The Girl with the Needle", "I'm Still Here" from Brazil and the Latvian animated film "Flow". The Austrian entry "The Devil's Contribution" by Veronika Franz and Severin Fiala did not make it into the pre-selection.
