Oscars 2025 Winners: Updating Live

The 2025 Oscar winners have been announced. The 97th Academy Awards are back to cap off award season by honoring the best in film from 2024. Netflix’s controversial crime musical Emilia Pérez leads the way with 13 nominations, but isn’t expected to win big after Karla Sofía Gascón’s controversial tweets resurfaced. In second place, The Brutalist and Wicked are tied with 10 nominations each. A Complete Unknown and Conclave, tied with eight nominations each, followed by The Substance and Anora with five and six, also have a chance to win some of the biggest awards of the night.
