Oscar Nominations 2022 – Full List

The nominees for the 94th annual Academy Awards were announced Tuesday 8th February 2022, with the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences presenting their selections for the best of cinema from 2021.

Tracee Ellis Ross and Leslie Jordan revealed the 2022 Oscars nominees for all 23 Academy Award categories in a live presentation that was presented via YouTube and the Oscars’ various social media platforms ahead of the 94th Oscars due to be held on Sunday 27th March 2022 from the Dolby Theatre at Hollywood Highland Centre, Hollywood.

Among the Academy’s most-nominated in 2022 were Jane Campion’s The Power of the Dog which earned nominations in Best Picture, Directing, Cinematography, Score, Best Actor and Supporting Actress, meanwhile Kristen Stewart earned the Best Actress nomination many had anticipated, though she was the only representative of Spencer in any category.

Amongst the surprises are the inclusion of Coming 2 America in the Makeup & Hairstyling category, making one of 2021’s least well-received films an official one-time Oscar nominee, while Licorice Pizza was absent from the cinematography category and House of Gucci was all-but shut out, including star Lady Gaga who had earlier been nominated for a BAFTA.
