89th Oscar Nominations Of All 24 Categories To Feature Global Announcement On Tuesday Morning

One of the biggest days in Hollywood is at hand.

The 89th Oscars Nominations will be announced on Tuesday, January 24. Coverage begins at 5:18 a.m. PST / 8:18 a.m. EST.

To help guide this year’s nominees through the 33 days between the nominations announcement and the Oscars ceremony, the Academy invited 11 Oscar-winning and nominated Academy members to share personal anecdotes about their Oscars experience and offer advice to the new class of nominees about this life-changing moment.

Academy President Cheryl Boone Isaacs will be joined by Demian Bichir, Dustin Lance Black, Glenn Close, Guillermo del Toro, Marcia Gay Harden, Terrence Howard, Jennifer Hudson, Brie Larson, Jason Reitman, Gabourey Sidibe and Ken Watanabe. These talented artists and filmmakers were filmed in six different cities around the globe—Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Toronto, London and Tokyo.

The pre-taped video footage will be edited together with voiceover and graphics announcing the nominations in all 24 award categories. In keeping with tradition, PwC will deliver the Oscars Nominations list to the Academy this evening, January 23.

Will presumed front-runner LA LA LAND see the most nominations? How will the categories for Best Actor and Best Actress pan out?

Read Michelle McCue’s look at the “Oscars and Movies and Targeting Millennials” over at AWFJ.com. In her article about the declining ratings, she says, “more mainstream movies nominated, the ones we already root for, the ones the regular movie-going Joe goes to see and make box office hits, would reasonably bring the much needed audience, and millennials, back to the TV to watch Hollywood’s Big Night.”

The 89th Academy Awards airs Oscar Sunday, February 26, 2017, at the Dolby Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center in Hollywood, and will be televised live on the ABC Television Network at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT. The Oscars also will be televised live in more than 225 countries and territories worldwide.
