It’s awards season again ahead of the Oscars 2025, and the list of eligible movies that could receive nominations and potentially win an Academy Award shows the scope of greatness across 2024 movies. Prior to the 97th Academy Awards taking place on March 2, 2025, it is up to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to nominate five movies in all 23 categories, with Best Picture the only category to get ten nominations. The 2024 Oscar winners saw Oppenheimer dominate the field, but there does not appear to be an overall frontrunner regarding the 2025 nominees and winners.
