LOS ANGELES — The 2025 Oscar nominations were announced Thursday ahead of the March 2 broadcast of the show airing on WBRZ.

"Emilia Pérez" leads the field of nominations this year with 13 in total. Following close behind with 10 each are "The Brutalist" and "Wicked," while "A Complete Unknown" and "Conclave" scored eight each.

All of the nominees for Best Director have never been nominated for an Oscar before. The last time this happened was in 1997 when James Cameron took home the statue for "Titanic." 

Newcomers also filled the acting categories, with 13 of the 20 nominations going to first-time nominees. Notably, cinematic mainstays Guy Pearce and Demi Moore were nominated for Best Supporting Actor and Best Actress for "The Brutalist" and "The Substance," respectively. 

The French-directed, Spanish language film "Emilia Pérez" was nominated for 13 Oscars — including Best Picture. This is the most for a foreign language film in the award show's nearly century-long history. Only three films — “All About Eve,” “Titanic” and “La La Land” — have scored more nominations in Academy Awards history.

Body horror satire sensation "The Substance" joined a prestigious club of horror films that have been nominated for the highest award in Hollywood. Only six other horror films have been nominated for Best Picture: "Jaws," "The Exorcist," "The Silence of the Lambs," "Black Swan," "Get Out" and "The Sixth Sense."

Rachel Sennott and Bowen Yang announced the nominees in all 23 categories for the 97th Academy Awards from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Los Angeles on "Good Morning America" and the academy's digital platforms

Nominees were initially set to be announced Friday, Jan. 17, but were delayed to Jan. 19 due to the Southern California wildfires, which started Jan. 7 and have left at least 28 dead, destroying thousands of homes across the region. Nominations were then moved for a second time to Jan. 23.

According to a letter sent to academy members on Jan. 22, this year's show will honor the city of Los Angeles, showcasing its resilience in the wake of the fires. Among the changes made to this year's show is the elimination of live performances of Best Original Song nominees. 

Comedian Conan O'Brien will host the 97th Academy Awards, airing live on WBRZ on Sunday, March 2, beginning at 6 p.m. The ceremony, taking place at the Dolby Theatre at Ovation Hollywood, will also stream live on Hulu for the first time.
