Oscars 2024: What to know ahead of the ceremony
It’s Hollywood’s biggest night: The 2024 Oscars ceremony will air on Sunday evening with host Jimmy Kimmel.
Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer leads with 13 nominations across categories, including best picture, best director and best actor, while Killers of the Flower Moon, Barbie, Poor Things and Anatomy of a Fall are also gearing up for a big night. It remains to be seen whether the internet’s popular celebrity dog actor, Messi from Anatomy of a Fall, will be in attendance.
It’s a remarkable year for Canadians at the Academy Awards, with Barbie‘s Ryan Gosling in contention for best supporting actor and writer-director Celine Song’s Past Lives nominated for best picture and best original screenplay. Musician Robbie Robertson is posthumously nominated for composing Killers of the Flower Moon‘s original score.
The ceremony airs on ABC starting at 7 p.m. ET and will stream on ABC’s website (an hour earlier than usual). CBC News reporter Eli Glasner is on the ground at famed Oscars venue the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.
This story will be updated with a full winners list throughout the evening, and a recap of the show will be published later tonight. For more Oscars content, follow along with CBC News on X and on TikTok.
