Few awards ceremonies have quite as much gravitas as the Oscars. Largely considered the pinnacle of recognition in the film industry, and the highest honour an actor, director, or filmmaker can receive, it should come as no surprise that we — along with the rest of the world — have been waiting with baited breath for the 2025 Oscars.
