The 95th Academy Awards ceremony is finally here! Tonight, March 12, viewers can watch the Oscars 2023 ceremony live stream online at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT / 12 a.m. GMT.
Oscars 2023 nominees for Best Picture feature a diverse range of films, from massive blockbusters to quiet indie dramas. The ten nominees are All Quiet on the Western Front, Avatar: The Way of Water, The Banshees of Inisherin, Elvis, Everything Everywhere All at Once, The Fabelmans, Tár, Top Gun: Maverick, Triangle of Sadness, and Women Talking.
One movie that stands out as the Best Picture frontrunner is Everything Everywhere All At Once. This ambitious and sprawling multiversal family saga stars Michelle Yeoh, with veteran actress and co-stars Ke Huy Quan, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Stephanie Hsu also receiving nominations for their performances.
Meanwhile, the Oscars 2023 ceremony will televise all 23 awards, which is different from last year’s controversial pre-taping of select craft categories. In addition to the awards, viewers can expect to see performances from Rihanna, a nominee for Original Song for Black Panther, and Lenny Kravitz during the In Memoriam segment. Jimmy Kimmel is set to host for the third time.
