The biggest night in Hollywood is quickly approaching.
This morning, actors Allison Williams and Riz Ahmed announced the nominees for the 95th annual Academy Awards, which will take place on March 12 this year. Jimmy Kimmel is set to host the glitzy night, in which cinema favorites like Steven Spielberg and Top Gun: Maverick will throw down to take home awards for Best Picture, Best Director, and more.
But those aren’t the most contentious awards of the night. No, the toughest races to predict this year are probably Best Actor and Actress this year, with Colin Farrell, Austin Butler, and Brendan Fraser duking it out in the former. In the latter, Cate Blanchett and Michelle Yeoh have gone toe-to-toe for Best Actress throughout the awards season, but only one can walk home victorious on the actual night.
Best Picture is looking to be a big battleground category, though, too—with awards analysts The Fabelmans, Everything Everywhere All at Once, and The Banshees of Inisherin putting them in the lead for the award. But who knows? Maybe All Quiet on the Western Front or Women Talking can pull ahead in February and go home with the biggest win of the night.
Everything Everywhere All at Once leads with 11 nominations, including a surprise double whammy in Best Supporting Actress category with Stephanie Hsu and Jamie Lee Curtis. Both The Banshees of Inisherin and All Quiet on the Western Front come in right behind at nine nominations
