The 98th Academy Awards are this Sunday, March 15, and after approximately four months of awards season, we are finally, mercifully, almost done. The ceremony kicks off at 7 pm ET / 4 pm PT on ABC and Hulu, with Conan O’Brien returning as host for the second year running, alongside an entirely new (!?) rule that voters have to watch all the films if they are going to vote.
Sinners leads the night with a record 16 nominations, One Battle After Another follows with 13, and the field is wide open enough that most Oscar ballot are already wrong. Not yours, though. We’ve got a good feeling about yours.
Our live blog goes up at 6 pm ET, one hour before showtime. We’ll have updates, hot takes, and running commentary straight through to the final award. Bookmark it and join us.
