The Best Director race at the 2025 Oscars has come down to five filmmakers: Jacques Audiard (Emilia Pérez), Sean Baker (Anora), Brady Corbet (The Brutalist), Coralie Fargeat (The Substance), and James Mangold (A Complete Unknown).

Coralie Fargeat and Brady Corbet are also among those in the running for more than one category at the 2025 Academy Awards.

Actors Rachel Sennott and Bowen Yang announced the nominees for the 97th Academy Awards. Jacques Audiard’s “Emilia Pérez,” the Netflix narco-musical about transgender identity, dominated the list with 13 nominations.

The use of AI in 'The Brutalist' sparked controversy, but the reality is that CG and digital effects have long been changing actors' performances.
