Oscars 2023: Nominees in major categories

The Academy Awards, popularly known as the Oscars, is set to hold on Sunday, in  Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, United States.

Winners of different categories are given a copy of a golden statuette known as a trophy officially called the “Academy Award of Merit”.

However, many refer to the Academy Award of Merit statuette by its nickname, the “Oscar.”

The statuette depicts a knight rendered in the Art Deco style, and was originally sculpted by Los Angeles artist George Stanley from a design sketch by art director Cedric Gibbons.

In this year’s edition, Multiverse sci-fi smash “Everything Everywhere All at Once” makes 11 nominations while Irish dark comedy “The Banshees of Inisherin” and World War I flick “All Quiet on the Western Front” has nine.
