Avatar: Fire and Ash – In theaters now
20th Century Studios’ Avatar: Fire and Ash finds Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), Na’vi warrior Neytiri (Oscar® winner Zoe Saldaña), and their family still reeling from the loss of Neteyam (Jamie Flatters) when they’re attacked by members of the Mangkwan, a.k.a. the Ash People, led by Varang (Oona Chaplin). The film garnered two nominations, for Best Costume Design (Deborah L. Scott) and Best Visual Effects (Joe Letteri, Richard Baneham, Eric Saindon, and Daniel Barrett.)
Elio – Streaming on Disney+
Nominated for Best Animated Feature Film (Madeline Sharafian, Domee Shi, Adrian Molina, and Mary Alice Drumm), Disney and Pixar’s Elio follows a young space fanatic (voiced by Yonas Kibreab) with a very active imagination and a huge alien obsession. So when said aliens receive a message from Earth and make contact, he knows it’s the real thing. When they beam Elio up to the Communiverse—an interplanetary organization with representatives from all manner of galaxies—everyone assumes he’s the leader of Earth, and he’s plunged into a crisis of truly epic proportions.

Zootopia 2 – In theaters now; available on digital; streaming March 11 on Disney+
Also nominated for Best Animated Feature Film (Jared Bush, Byron Howard, and Yvett Merino), Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Zootopia 2 finds rookie cops Judy Hopps (voiced by Ginnifer Goodwin) and Nick Wilde (voiced by Jason Bateman) hot on the trail of a great mystery when pit viper Gary De’Snake (voiced by Oscar® winner Ke Huy Quan)—the first snake to be seen in Zootopia in a century!—arrives and turns the animal metropolis upside down.
The Oscars® will air LIVE on ABC and Hulu this Sunday at 7e/4p from the Dolby® Theatre at Ovation Hollywood.
