Among the film’s nominations were best picture, Cynthia Erivo for best actress, Ariana Grande for best supporting actress, best costume design and best original score. However, Jon M. Chu was shut out of the directing category.

The directing lineup encompasses all first-timers — Sean Baker (“Anora”), Brady Corbet (“The Brutalist”), James Mangold (“A Complete Unknown”), Jacques Audiard (“Emilia Pérez”) and Coralie Fargeat (“The Substance”), a first since 1997 where James Cameron’s “Titanic” swept the ceremony. In fact, 13 of the 20 actors recognized their inaugural noms.

“Emilia Pérez” and “ Wicked ” emerged January 23 as the two Oscar craft juggernauts, scoring seven nominations apiece and setting up a battle of the musicals at the 97th Academy Awards on March 2. This matches the seven craft nominations of last year’s eventual Best Picture winner “Oppenheimer.”
