It’s time to tune in and watch the Oscars 2023 live stream online, as we see how a very busy Best Picture category turns out. So, are you ready to see the past year's best movies and performances honored? Or do you need more time to prepare your picks?
This year's Oscar nominees for Best Picture run the gamut from massive blockbusters to quiet indie dramas.
The 10 Oscar movies are All Quiet on the Western Front, Avatar: The Way of Water, The Banshees of Inisherin, Elvis, Everything Everywhere All at Once, The Fabelmans, Tár, Top Gun: Maverick, Triangle of Sadness and Women Talking. (Click here for the full list of nominees.) All, save for the Avatar sequel, can be watched online in one way or another.
The Best Picture frontrunner is Everything Everywhere All at the Once, the ambitious and sprawling multiversal family saga starring Michelle Yeoh. The veteran actress and co-stars Ke Huy Quan, Jamie Lee Curtis and Stephanie Hsu are all nominated for their performances.
The 2023 Oscars ceremony will televise all 23 awards, unlike last year's controversial pre-taping of select craft categories. Viewers can expect performances from Rihanna (a nominee for Original Song for Black Panther) and Lenny Kravitz (the In Memoriam segment).
Jimmy Kimmel is set to host for the third time.
Here's everything you need to watch the 2023 Oscars online. Plus, check out what else you can watch this weekend.
