As the 97th Academy Awards fast approaches us, let's get ready for Hollywood's biggest night of glamour and style. This year, the Oscars will be held at the Dolby Theatre on Sunday, March 2, 2025, starting at 7 p.m. ET., where the film industry’s top players will gather to honor the year’s finest cinematic achievements.
The show will broadcast live on ABC and streaming on Hulu, and it promises an unforgettable evening with Conan O’Brien making his debut as the Oscars host. Leading the nominations with 13 nods is the controversial “Emilia Pérez,” followed by “The Brutalist” and “Wicked,” each with 10. And we’re incredibly excited to see Zoe Saldaña, who’s up for Best Supporting Actress and could very well steal the show.
