The Full List of 2021 Oscar Nominations

They arrived a lot later than usual because of the global pandemic, but the Oscar nominees are finally here. Eight movies will vie for the title of Best Picture including The Father, Judas and the Black Messiah, Minari, Promising Young Woman, Sound of Metal, David Fincher’s Mank, Aaron Sorkin’s The Trial of the Chicago 7, and Chloe Zhao’s Nomadland. 

Despite the fact that far fewer films were released last year than normal, because of Covid, the Academy Awards are giving out their full compliment of awards in 2021. Even in a smaller field, there are a ton of worthy artists and achievements up for the prizes. Here’s the full list of Oscar nominees; the winners will be announced live on ABC on Sunday, April 25.
