]]>Several Oscar contenders have been added to the presenter lineup, including Oppenheimer’s Emily Blunt and Barbie’s Ryan Gosling and America Ferrera, along with their co-star Issa Rae.
The Oscars are reportedly planning to have five of the previous acting winners present in their respective categories… and the clues are everywhere! Several more Oscar winners will present at the ceremony, including Sally Field (Norma Rae, Places in the Heart), Ben Kingsley (Gandhi), Tim Robbins (Mystic River), Mary Steenburgen (Melvin and Howard), Charlize Theron (Monster), Christoph Waltz (Inglourious Basterds, Django Unchained), and Forest Whitaker (The Last King of Scotland).
Wicked stars Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande have also been added to the list of presenters, alongside the three-time Oscar winner Steven Spielberg, two-time Oscar nominee Melissa McCarthy (Bridesmaids, Can You Ever Forgive Me?), and Anya Taylor-Joy (The Queen’s Gambit).
The 2024 Academy Awards will take place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on March 10, with Jimmy Kimmel taking on the hosting duties for the fourth time.

]]>With a Grammy and a Golden Globe already under her belt, Eilish is entering the Oscars as the front-runner for the best original song with for “What Was I Made For?” from Barbie. Her brother Finneas O’Connell will join her on stage for another moving rendition of this reflective ballad.
After weeks of speculations about his involvement, Ryan Gosling is officially bringing Kenergy to the Oscars. He’ll join forces with Mark Ronson for a live performance of “I’m Just Ken”, another major best original song contender from Barbie.
The list of performers will also include Becky G, belting out Diane Warren’s “The Fire Inside” from Flamin’ Hot, Jon Batiste with “It Never Went Away” from American Symphony, plus Scott George and the Osage Singers, performing “Wahzhazhe (A Song For My People)” from Killers of the Flower Moon.
The 2024 Academy Awards are coming back to the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on March 10 with the host Jimmy Kimmel. Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer is leading this year’s list of Oscar nominees, with a total of 13 nods.

]]>Mahershala Ali (Moonlight), Nicolas Cage (Leaving Las Vegas), Jamie Lee Curtis (Everything Everywhere All at Once), Brendan Fraser (The Whale), Jessica Lange (Tootsie), Al Pacino (Scent of a Woman), Ke Huy Quan Curtis (Everything Everywhere All at Once), and Sam Rockwell (Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri) have also been added to the presenter lineup, and they all have one thing in common.
With the exception of Zendaya and Michelle Pfeiffer, all the newly announced presenters are previous Oscar winners, and that’s not a coincidence. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the upcoming Oscar ceremony will feature a “Field of Dreams-like format”, which will see five past acting winners introduce the five current nominees for each award.
The 96th Academy Awards will return to the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on March 10, and the rest of the presenters will be announced in the coming days. Oppenheimer will enter the ceremony with 13 nominations, followed by Poor Things with 11 and Killers of the Flower Moon with 10.

]]>The post Margot Robbie Has No Regrets About Her “Barbie” Oscar Snub appeared first on OMG Check It Out !.
]]>Many experts predicted that Robbie would get an Oscar nod for Barbie, but ended up losing the nomination to Nyad’s Annette Benning, Killers of the Flower Moon’s Lily Gladstone, Anatomy of a Fall’s Sandra Hüller, Maestro’s Carey Mulligan, and Poor Things’ Emma Stone.
This shocking snub inspired thousands of angry tweets and hot takes, but the person least bothered by it seems to be Robbie herself. She addressed it during a special SAG screening of Barbie and said “there’s no way to feel sad when you know you’re this blessed.”
“We set out to do something that would shift culture, affect culture, just make some sort of impact. And it’s already done that, and some, way more than we ever dreamed it would. And that is truly the biggest reward that could come out of all of this,” she explained.
Despite missing out on the best actress nod, Robbie is in the running for the best picture award as the film’s producer, alongside David Heyman, Tom Ackerley, and Robbie Brenner.

]]>All three films are in the running for the night’s biggest honor – the coveted best picture award – but they’ll have to beat tough competition in American Fiction, Anatomy of a Fall, Barbie, The Holdovers, Maestro, Past Lives, and The Zone of Interest.
Oppenheimer’s Christopher Nolan, Poor Things’s Yorgos Lanthimos, and Flower Moon’s Martin Scorsese are all in the running for the best director award, alongside Justine Triet for Anatomy of a Fall and Jonathan Glazer for The Zone of Interest.
Oppenheimer owes three of its nominations to its stars Cillian Murphy, Emily Blunt, and Robert Downey Jr., but it also received numerous nods in technical categories, including best cinematography, best film editing, and best sound.
Poor Things is coming into the night with 11 nods, followed by Flower Moon with 10, Barbie with eight, and Maestro with seven. The winners will be announced on March 10, when the Academy Awards are set to return to LA’s Dolby Theatre with the host Jimmy Kimmel.

]]>The post 2024 Academy Awards: Oscars Shortlists in 10 Categories Unveiled appeared first on OMG Check It Out !.
]]>The list of contenders still in the race for the best international feature film includes The Zone of Interest (United Kingdom), Fallen Leaves (Finland), and The Promised Land (Denmark). When it comes to the snubs, the glaring absence of Anatomy of the Fall isn’t the Academy’s fault, since France submitted The Taste of Things instead.
Barbie topped the list of shortlisted films with a total of five mentions, after Dua Lipa’s “Dance The Night”, Ryan Gosling’s “I’m Just Ken”, and Billie Eilish’s “What Was I Made For?” made it to the best original song shortlist. This film is still a potential nominee for best score and best sound, but it was eliminated from the running for best hair and makeup.
Killers of the Flower Moon and Society of the Snow were right behind with four mentions, while Oppenheimer, The Color Purple, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, Poor Things, Napoleon, and American Symphony received three each.
The full list of nominees for the 96th Academy Awards will be unveiled on January 23, followed by the ceremony on March 10, 2024.

The mastermind behind Netflix’s All Quiet on the Western Front also had a reason to celebrate on Sunday night. In addition to being named the best international feature film, this anti-war epic also came out victorious in three technical categories—best original score, production design, and cinematography.

]]>The post 2023 Academy Awards: Lady Gaga, Rihanna, & Taylor Swift on the Best Original Song Shortlist appeared first on OMG Check It Out !.
]]>Just last week, the Academy shared the list of 82 tracks eligible for this award, but only 15 made the shortlist and have a chance to make it to the next stage of the competition. Only five songs will be left in the running when Oscar nominations are announced on January 24, 2023.
The list of contenders includes many A-list recording artists, starting with Lady Gaga (“Hold My Hand” from Top Gun: Maverick), Rihanna (“Lift Me Up” from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever), and Taylor Swift (“Carolina” from Where the Crawdads Sing). Golden Globe-nominated “Naatu Naatu” from RRR and “Ciao Papa” from Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio also made the cut.
These five songs all received Golden Globe nominations in the same category, so they’re clear front-runners, but the shortlist also includes tracks by The Weeknd, Selena Gomez, Giveon, Jazmine Sullivan, Sofia Carlson, and Diane Warren, among others.
The 95th Academy Awards will take place on March 12, 2023 with Jimmy Kimmel returning to host for the third time.

]]>The post 2022 Academy Awards: “CODA” and “Dune” Top the List of Winners appeared first on OMG Check It Out !.
]]>The race for best picture was uncreditable until the very last moment, but CODA managed to beat the likes of The Power of the Dog and Belfast to win the biggest award of the night. It made history as the first straight-to-streaming film and the first film with a predominately deaf cast in leading roles to ever win this award.
Denis Villeneuve’s Dune topped the list of winners with a total of six awards, mostly in technical categories. CODA was right behind with three, including best supporting actor (Troy Kotsur) and best adapted screenplay (Sian Heder). Despite topping the list of nominations with twelve nods, The Power of the Dog only picked up one award—best director for Jane Campion.
Kotsur was in pretty good company in the acting categories, where all of the prizes went to major front-runners: best actor Will Smith (King Richard), best actress Jessica Chastain (The Eyes of Tammy Faye), and best supporting actress Ariana DeBose (West Side Story).
The 94th Academy Awards took place on March 27 with Regina Hall, Amy Schumer, and Wanda Sykes hosting the festivities.

]]>Several Oscar contenders have been added to the presenter lineup, including Oppenheimer’s Emily Blunt and Barbie’s Ryan Gosling and America Ferrera, along with their co-star Issa Rae.
The Oscars are reportedly planning to have five of the previous acting winners present in their respective categories… and the clues are everywhere! Several more Oscar winners will present at the ceremony, including Sally Field (Norma Rae, Places in the Heart), Ben Kingsley (Gandhi), Tim Robbins (Mystic River), Mary Steenburgen (Melvin and Howard), Charlize Theron (Monster), Christoph Waltz (Inglourious Basterds, Django Unchained), and Forest Whitaker (The Last King of Scotland).
Wicked stars Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande have also been added to the list of presenters, alongside the three-time Oscar winner Steven Spielberg, two-time Oscar nominee Melissa McCarthy (Bridesmaids, Can You Ever Forgive Me?), and Anya Taylor-Joy (The Queen’s Gambit).
The 2024 Academy Awards will take place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on March 10, with Jimmy Kimmel taking on the hosting duties for the fourth time.

]]>The post 2024 Academy Awards: Billie Eilish, Becky G, & Ryan Gosling Among Performers appeared first on OMG Check It Out !.
]]>With a Grammy and a Golden Globe already under her belt, Eilish is entering the Oscars as the front-runner for the best original song with for “What Was I Made For?” from Barbie. Her brother Finneas O’Connell will join her on stage for another moving rendition of this reflective ballad.
After weeks of speculations about his involvement, Ryan Gosling is officially bringing Kenergy to the Oscars. He’ll join forces with Mark Ronson for a live performance of “I’m Just Ken”, another major best original song contender from Barbie.
The list of performers will also include Becky G, belting out Diane Warren’s “The Fire Inside” from Flamin’ Hot, Jon Batiste with “It Never Went Away” from American Symphony, plus Scott George and the Osage Singers, performing “Wahzhazhe (A Song For My People)” from Killers of the Flower Moon.
The 2024 Academy Awards are coming back to the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on March 10 with the host Jimmy Kimmel. Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer is leading this year’s list of Oscar nominees, with a total of 13 nods.

]]>The post Zendaya, Michelle Yeoh, & Lupita Nyong’o Among Academy Awards Presenters appeared first on OMG Check It Out !.
]]>Mahershala Ali (Moonlight), Nicolas Cage (Leaving Las Vegas), Jamie Lee Curtis (Everything Everywhere All at Once), Brendan Fraser (The Whale), Jessica Lange (Tootsie), Al Pacino (Scent of a Woman), Ke Huy Quan Curtis (Everything Everywhere All at Once), and Sam Rockwell (Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri) have also been added to the presenter lineup, and they all have one thing in common.
With the exception of Zendaya and Michelle Pfeiffer, all the newly announced presenters are previous Oscar winners, and that’s not a coincidence. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the upcoming Oscar ceremony will feature a “Field of Dreams-like format”, which will see five past acting winners introduce the five current nominees for each award.
The 96th Academy Awards will return to the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on March 10, and the rest of the presenters will be announced in the coming days. Oppenheimer will enter the ceremony with 13 nominations, followed by Poor Things with 11 and Killers of the Flower Moon with 10.

]]>The post Margot Robbie Has No Regrets About Her “Barbie” Oscar Snub appeared first on OMG Check It Out !.
]]>Many experts predicted that Robbie would get an Oscar nod for Barbie, but ended up losing the nomination to Nyad’s Annette Benning, Killers of the Flower Moon’s Lily Gladstone, Anatomy of a Fall’s Sandra Hüller, Maestro’s Carey Mulligan, and Poor Things’ Emma Stone.
This shocking snub inspired thousands of angry tweets and hot takes, but the person least bothered by it seems to be Robbie herself. She addressed it during a special SAG screening of Barbie and said “there’s no way to feel sad when you know you’re this blessed.”
“We set out to do something that would shift culture, affect culture, just make some sort of impact. And it’s already done that, and some, way more than we ever dreamed it would. And that is truly the biggest reward that could come out of all of this,” she explained.
Despite missing out on the best actress nod, Robbie is in the running for the best picture award as the film’s producer, alongside David Heyman, Tom Ackerley, and Robbie Brenner.

]]>All three films are in the running for the night’s biggest honor – the coveted best picture award – but they’ll have to beat tough competition in American Fiction, Anatomy of a Fall, Barbie, The Holdovers, Maestro, Past Lives, and The Zone of Interest.
Oppenheimer’s Christopher Nolan, Poor Things’s Yorgos Lanthimos, and Flower Moon’s Martin Scorsese are all in the running for the best director award, alongside Justine Triet for Anatomy of a Fall and Jonathan Glazer for The Zone of Interest.
Oppenheimer owes three of its nominations to its stars Cillian Murphy, Emily Blunt, and Robert Downey Jr., but it also received numerous nods in technical categories, including best cinematography, best film editing, and best sound.
Poor Things is coming into the night with 11 nods, followed by Flower Moon with 10, Barbie with eight, and Maestro with seven. The winners will be announced on March 10, when the Academy Awards are set to return to LA’s Dolby Theatre with the host Jimmy Kimmel.

]]>The post 2024 Academy Awards: Oscars Shortlists in 10 Categories Unveiled appeared first on OMG Check It Out !.
]]>The list of contenders still in the race for the best international feature film includes The Zone of Interest (United Kingdom), Fallen Leaves (Finland), and The Promised Land (Denmark). When it comes to the snubs, the glaring absence of Anatomy of the Fall isn’t the Academy’s fault, since France submitted The Taste of Things instead.
Barbie topped the list of shortlisted films with a total of five mentions, after Dua Lipa’s “Dance The Night”, Ryan Gosling’s “I’m Just Ken”, and Billie Eilish’s “What Was I Made For?” made it to the best original song shortlist. This film is still a potential nominee for best score and best sound, but it was eliminated from the running for best hair and makeup.
Killers of the Flower Moon and Society of the Snow were right behind with four mentions, while Oppenheimer, The Color Purple, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, Poor Things, Napoleon, and American Symphony received three each.
The full list of nominees for the 96th Academy Awards will be unveiled on January 23, followed by the ceremony on March 10, 2024.

]]>Just last week, the Academy shared the list of 82 tracks eligible for this award, but only 15 made the shortlist and have a chance to make it to the next stage of the competition. Only five songs will be left in the running when Oscar nominations are announced on January 24, 2023.
The list of contenders includes many A-list recording artists, starting with Lady Gaga (“Hold My Hand” from Top Gun: Maverick), Rihanna (“Lift Me Up” from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever), and Taylor Swift (“Carolina” from Where the Crawdads Sing). Golden Globe-nominated “Naatu Naatu” from RRR and “Ciao Papa” from Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio also made the cut.
These five songs all received Golden Globe nominations in the same category, so they’re clear front-runners, but the shortlist also includes tracks by The Weeknd, Selena Gomez, Giveon, Jazmine Sullivan, Sofia Carlson, and Diane Warren, among others.
The 95th Academy Awards will take place on March 12, 2023 with Jimmy Kimmel returning to host for the third time.

]]>The post 2022 Academy Awards: “CODA” and “Dune” Top the List of Winners appeared first on OMG Check It Out !.
]]>The race for best picture was uncreditable until the very last moment, but CODA managed to beat the likes of The Power of the Dog and Belfast to win the biggest award of the night. It made history as the first straight-to-streaming film and the first film with a predominately deaf cast in leading roles to ever win this award.
Denis Villeneuve’s Dune topped the list of winners with a total of six awards, mostly in technical categories. CODA was right behind with three, including best supporting actor (Troy Kotsur) and best adapted screenplay (Sian Heder). Despite topping the list of nominations with twelve nods, The Power of the Dog only picked up one award—best director for Jane Campion.
Kotsur was in pretty good company in the acting categories, where all of the prizes went to major front-runners: best actor Will Smith (King Richard), best actress Jessica Chastain (The Eyes of Tammy Faye), and best supporting actress Ariana DeBose (West Side Story).
The 94th Academy Awards took place on March 27 with Regina Hall, Amy Schumer, and Wanda Sykes hosting the festivities.
