The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences have announced the nominees for the 93rd Academy Awards or Oscars 2021. Actors Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra announced the list of nominees. This year, the Oscars ceremony had to be delayed owing to the Covid-19 pandemic. Usually held in the month of February, the event has been postponed to April for this year. The prestigious award ceremony will be held on April 26, 2021.
The Oscars 2021 will also see many changes owing to the coronavirus pandemic. The most important of them will be that the Academy eased the eligibility rules for the awards and allowed films that skipped theatrical releases and opted for an OTT platform to be able to contest. previously, the eligibility criteria laid down by The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences was that a film had to be released in the United States for a minimum of one week for it to be eligible for nominations by the Oscars Committee.
Top contenders for Oscars 2021 include films like Chloe Zhao’s Nomadland, David Fincher’s Mank and Aaron Sorkin’s The Trial of Chicago 7.
