Here's everything you need to know about the 2022 Oscars, including who's expected to win and what the big controversies are this year.
Regina Hall, Amy Schumer and Wanda Sykes are taking the stage to co-host the ceremony, which has been without an emcee for the past three years. Producer Will Packer said each woman brings something different to the show.Some exclusions that stood out include Denis Villeneuve, whose “Dune” got the second most nominations behind “The Power of the Dog” including best picture, but who failed to get a directing nomination for himself.
On Wednesday the academy squashed one pre-show controversy by confirming that “West Side Story” star Rachel Zegler will be a presenter, a reversal that came after several days of uproar when the actor noted on social media she didn’t have an Oscar invite. While most of the presenters have some connection to the film industry, some names like DJ Khaled, Tony Hawk, Kelly Slater and Shaun White have been headscratchers.Organizers have promised that they will keep the broadcast to three hours and Packer wants to make it as entertaining as possible while still honoring the nominees and winners.
