Oscars 2023: Colin Farrell's first nod, James Cameron snub and Lady Gaga and Rihanna head to head

Everything Everywhere All At Once dominates the 2023 Oscars nominations with 11 nods while dark Irish comedy The Banshees Of Inisherin closely follows with a total of nine nominations.

The star-studded ceremony, the 95th edition, will be hosted by TV funnyman Jimmy Kimmel and take place at Hollywood's Dolby Theatre in March.

Colin Farrell and Bill Nighy have both received their first best actor Oscar nominations.

Irishman Farrell was nominated for The Banshees Of Inisherin and English actor Nighy for his role in the film Living.

Also nominated in the category were Irish actor Paul Mescal for Aftersun; Austin Butler for Elvis; and Brendan Fraser for The Whale.

The nominees for best actress in a leading role were Cate Blanchett for Tar; Ana de Armas for Blonde; Andrea Riseborough for To Leslie; Michelle Williams for The Fabelmans; and Michelle Yeoh for Everything Everywhere All at Once.

Rihanna and Lady Gaga will go head to head at the Oscars for best original song.

The big blockbusters nominated for Best Picture included Avatar: The Way Of Water; Top Gun: Maverick; and Elvis.

Also included in the 10-strong category in the Academy Awards were The Banshees Of Inisherin, All Quiet On The Western Front, Everything Everywhere All At Once, The Fabelmans, Tar, Triangle Of Sadness and Women Talking.

Nominations were announced during a livestream hosted by Riz Ahmed and Allison Williams.

The ceremony will mark the first since Will Smith smacked Chris Rock in the face after the comedian made a joke about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith.

Will has since resigned from the Academy and has been banned from attending for 10 years.

Academy CEO Bill Kramer said: "The energy around the show should feel like a massive celebration of cinema and the awards – our legacy, our artists, our movies, our future."

He added: "The 95th gives us a great opportunity to knit together the incredible legacy of the Oscars, the diverse and powerful work we do across the Academy, our vision for the future."
