Movie fans are brimming with excitement after the nominations for the 97th annual Academy Awards were announced today (January 23).
The long-awaited list, which had to be delayed twice due to the Los Angeles wildfires, is being led in terms of overall nominations by Netflix’s crime musical Emilia Pérez, Bob Dylan’s biographical flick A Complete Unknown and the political thriller Conclave.
The list has been labeled as “historic” by some fans. Emilia Pérez, on one hand, is a movie touching on transgender issues with 13 nominations, a number that puts it close to critical darlings Titanic, All About Eve, and La La Land.
On the other hand, the lead actor of A Complete Unknown, Timothée Chalamet, is receiving his second Oscar nomination, which, if he wins, could turn him into the youngest male actor ever to win the prize.

Actress Karla Sofía Gascón, the lead in Emilia Pérez, also made history by being the first transgender woman to be nominated in any acting category. The film also broke another record by being the international film with the most nominations in the awards’ history.

Gascón will face fierce competition in the form of Wicked’s Cynthia Erivo, and The Substance’s Demi Moore, two lead actresses who surprised audiences with their exquisite performances in their respective roles.
Other nominees for Best Actress include Anora’s Mikey Madison and I’m Still Here’s Fernanda Torres.

Chalamet will compete against The Brutalist’s Adrian Brody, Sing Sing’s Colman Domingo, Conclave’s Ralph Fiennes, and The Apprentice’s Sebastian Stan.
The event was hosted live by actors Bowen Yang and Rachel Sennot. The official ceremony will be held on March 2, at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.
