Hosts for Oscars 2025 Nominations

Why Oscars 2025 Nominations Were Postponed
The nominations announcement was rescheduled twice due to the Los Angeles wildfires. Originally set for January 17, it was postponed to January 19 and later moved to January 23.
To accommodate the delay, the Academy extended the voting period and canceled the Oscar Nominees Luncheon, a traditional pre-ceremony event. The 97th Academy Awards will take place on March 2, 2025, at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, with Conan O’Brien as the host.
