To cap off an extended and all-around unprecedented awards season, the Academy unveiled the 2021 Oscar nominations on Monday, announced by Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Nick Jonas via an early morning livestream.
Mank is the year's most nominated film, collecting 10 nominations, followed by The Father, Judas and the Black Messiah, Minari, Nomadland, Sound of Metal and The Trial of the Chicago 7, which all earned six nominations. As always, there were also a number of notable surprises and snubs.
The winners will be announced during the 93rd Academy Awards on Sunday, April 25, airing at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on ABC. The Oscars ceremony, which was postponed two months due to the ongoing pandemic, is set to be an in-person event at the Dolby Theater and L.A.'s Union Station.
