Stars prep for 93rd Academy Awards
The 93rd Academy Awards will take place today, but it won’t look like the normal awards ceremony.
The awards will take place in multiple locations – and unlike recent ceremonies like the Golden Globes and the Emmys, the Oscars have asked nominees to attend in person.
Mank leads the nominees with 10, but is unlikely to win the night’s top prizes.
Instead, films including Nomadland, Minari, and Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom are expected to perform strongly in some of the major categories.
Nominees
Best picture: The Father, Mank, The Trial of the Chicago 7, Minari, Judas and the Black Messiah, Promising Young Woman, Sound of Metal, Nomadland.
Best director: Chloe Zhao (Nomadland), David Fincher (Mank), Lee Isaac Chung (Minari), Emerald Fennell (Promising Young Woman), Thomas Vinterberg (Another Round).
Best actor: Chadwick Boseman (Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom), Riz Ahmed (Sound of Metal), Anthony Hopkins (The Father), Gary Oldman (Mank), Steven Yeun (Minari).
Best actress: Viola Davis (Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom), Andra Day (The United States vs Billie Holiday), Vanessa Kirby (Pieces of a Woman), Frances McDormand (Nomadland), Carey Mulligan (Promising Young Woman).
Best supporting actress: Olivia Colman (The Father), Amanda Seyfried (Mank), Maria Bakalova (Borat Subsequent Moviefilm), Glenn Close (Hillbilly Elegy), Yuh-Jung Youn (Minari).
Best supporting actor: Sacha Baron Cohen (The Trial of the Chicago 7), Daniel Kaluuya (Judas and the Black Messiah), Leslie Odom Jr (One Night in Miami), Paul Raci (Sound of Metal), Lakeith Stanfield (Judas and the Black Messiah).
Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.
The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.
The government offers generous rebates and tax breaks to international productions, making it an attractive proposition for filmmakers looking to maximise their budgets.
Despite the recent intake of Hollywood productions down under such as ‘The Fall Guy’ and ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’, Aussie independents are still finding the space to carve their own creative path.
Rob Fantozzi joined the program to discuss the latest in Hollywood, and showcased his own upcoming project – ‘Omerta‘. #featured
