The Academy Awards have announced their shortlist for the 94th installment of the awards celebration set to take place on March 27th. The list breaks down the pre-nominees of 10 categories: Documentary Feature, Documentary Short, International Feature, Live Action Short, Animated Short, Makeup and Hairstyling, Music Score, Original Song, Sound, and Visual Effects. While we now have an idea of where some of the nominations may go, the final list of nominees will be made known on February 8th.
Many of the films received more than one mention, but No Time to Die, the newest James Bond film, earned the most with mentions in five categories. Coming in behind No Time to Die, was another action-packed blockbuster hit, Dune, which raked in four mentions. The Jane Campion-directed The Power of the Dog earned three mentions, just ahead of the latest Marvel film Spider-Man: No Way Home, and the newest installment in the Matrix franchise, The Matrix Resurrections, which each earned two.
Pop favorite Billie Eilish received two mentions for separate projects, including one for a documentary centered around her life and another for Original Song for her work as co-writer and singer of the title tune from No Time to Die. She’ll have heavy competition in both, as she goes up against the likes of Brian Wilson, Beyoncé, Carole King, and Lin-Manuel Miranda (just to name a few) for Original Song.
Along with the excitement of multiple mentions comes the upset and shock at the lack of nods for some films, such as the French film Titane, which took home the Cannes Film Festival’s Palme d’Or. Director Julia Ducournau won the coveted award at Cannes and was the second woman ever to do so, the first being Campion. Titane was expected to earn a spot in the International Feature category.
