This time last year, the red carpets were already back in storage.

The 93rd Academy Awards ceremony is scheduled to take place on April 25, more than two months later than last year’s ceremony. The awards will recognize films released during a year in which movie theaters were largely closed.

Streaming services, which were already on the rise as an awards-season presence, are poised to dominate in April, both with their own productions (like Netflix’s “Mank”) and with traditional studio films that were released through streaming platforms because of the pandemic (like Searchlight Pictures’s “Nomadland,” which is streaming on Hulu).

Nominations were announced on March 15. See below for the full list.
