The big night is here! The 2025 Academy Awards results are in, and with one of the most interesting line-up of films in contention, the 97th Oscars proved to be a night to remember.

Film fans across the world tuned in to see Sean Baker’s mesmeric Anora would triumph against the cinematic might of Brady Corbet’s epic film of ambition and tenacity, The Brutalist. Also in the mix was BAFTA faavourite Conclave, as well as welcome outsider The Substance (so rare for a horror film to be nominated for Best Picture) and the controversy-adjacent Emilia Perez.

Who won? Well… here’s a list of the awards and nominees with the winners in bold.
