Popcorn at the ready! It’s time for the 96th Academy Awards aka Hollywood’s big night. Amazingly, this year’s edition features not just A-listers and shiny trophies, but movies that people have actually seen.
Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer is in prime position, leading the pack with 13 Oscar nominations, but Best Picture is by no means a lock. There’s healthy competition from the likes of Poor Things, Barbie, Anatomy of a Fall, Killers of the Flower Moon, Maestro, The Holdovers, and The Zone of Interest.
You can watch red carpet interviews from 9pm UK time on ITVX, and the Jonathan Ross-led Oscars Live coverage begins at 10:15pm on ITV. The ceremony itself, hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, starts at 11pm. We’ll be covering all the action live here: from fabulous fashion to the major winners and most memorable speeches of the 2024 Oscars.
