Jimmy Kimmel hosts the Oscars
The Oscars will take place on the night of March 10th to 11th, with Jimmy Kimmel (56) hosting the award show for the fourth time.
With 13 entries, Christopher Nolan’s (53) drama “Oppenheimer” about the eponymous “father of the atomic bomb” has the most chances. “Poor Things” by Giorgos Lanthimos (50) and “Killers of the Flower Moon” by Martin Scorsese (81) follow with eleven and ten nominations. Germany is also worried thanks, among other things, to Sandra Hülser (leading actress in “Anatomy of a Case”) and “The Teacher’s Room” (Best Foreign Language Film).
