The 2022 Oscar nominees are unveiled!

On Tuesday morning, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced nominations for the 94th annual Academy Awards. The ceremony is set to air live from Hollywood's Dolby Theatre on ABC Sunday, March 27.

Tracee Ellis Ross and Leslie Jordan announced the nominees together.

The Power of the Dog earned 12 nominations — including for real-life couple Kirsten Dunst and Jesse Plemons — who play husband and wife in the drama. Dune, the sci-fi epic starring Timothée Chalamet, earned 10 nods, while Belfast and West Side Story got seven.

Will Packer is producing the broadcast this year with Glenn Weiss directing the ceremony. The Emmy nominee — behind movies like Girls Trip, Straight Outta Compton and Stomp the Yard — said in a press release, "The power, the beauty, the romance of the imagery in movies has always attracted me. I'm fully embracing the challenge of bringing an ode to one of the most iconic mediums in the world to life. What an honor!"

ABC previously confirmed there will be a host for this year's ceremony, though it hasn't yet been announced who will emcee. The show has gone host-less since Jimmy Kimmel headlined back in 2018.
