All the Oscars: The Complete List of 2023 Nominees

'Everything Everywhere All At Once,' 'All Quiet on the Western Front' and 'Banshees of Inisherin' top the list of this year's nominees.

Everything Everywhere All at Once topped the list of nominees for the upcoming 95th annual Academy Awards, with 11 nominations. The film racked up nods in almost every category, including four in the acting fields, with two women competing against one another for Best Supporting Actress.

In a close second place are two films – All Quiet on the Western Front and The Banshees of Inisherin – with nine apiece. Just behind those is Elvis, with eight chances to take home some gold.

Everything Everywhere All at Once was applauded by critics when it was released in early 2022, and since then, it has been gaining steam in terms of award nominations and wins, so the fact that it ended up ruling this year’s nominees tally isn’t entirely shocking.

All Quiet on the Western Front, however, was largely unnoticed when Netflix dropped it not too long ago, but suddenly it became something of a juggernaut in the awards circuit, and seemed destined for Oscar glory after it overperformed with BAFTA nominations.

On the LGBTQ front, Cate Blanchett was nominated for her performance as the arrogant and scandalized lesbian conductor Lydia Tár in Tár, which also received nods for Best Picture, screenplay and director, while Brendan Fraser earned a nomination for his performance as a profoundly overweight gay man in The Whale.

The Oscars will air live from Los Angeles on March 12 on ABC.
