Oscars 2021 Winners: Complete List of Every Academy Award Winner

In a few short moments, the 93rd Academy Awards will officially launch and hand out the most prestigious awards available in Tinsel Town. As compared to previous years, the organizers behind this year’s Oscars ceremony opted to host nominees at both the Dolby Theater — the traditional stomping grounds for ol’ Oscar and company — and Los Angeles’ Union Station due to the ongoing global pandemic in an effort to promote social distancing.

Only those nominated will be able to attend the ceremony, and if nominees are unable to travel due to quarantine restrictions, there have been 20 different remote locations established around the globe in major markets like London and Paris.

A few more firsts have taken place this year, as it’s the first time in Academy Awards in recent history — at least since the 6th Academy Awards in 1934 — that films from two separate calendar years will be eligible for awards. On top of that, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences also waived the previous requirement of films needing a theatrical release to be eligible for Oscar consideration. Because of that, feature films that were added straight to streaming services throughout 2020 were able to earn a nomination without entering theaters.

Keep scrolling to see the entire list of nominees for this year’s Oscars ceremony.
