Oscar nominations 2018: Date, time and how to watch live online

With the Golden Globes and SAG Awards now out of the way the Academy Awards are looming, with Jimmy Kimmel set to host this year's ceremony on 4 March, 2018.

Tomorrow (23 January) the nominations for it will be revealed, at an announcement combining live presentations from the Academy’s Samuel Goldwyn Theater with ominous-sounding 'pre-taped category introductions'. Judging by the Academy's social media feeds, these look to star Rebel Wilson and a prosthetically-enhanced Rosario Dawson.

What time are the announcements?

At 5:22 am PST (1:22 pm GMT), the nominees will be announced in the following categories (listed here in no particular order): Cinematography, Costume Design, Film Editing, Makeup and Hairstyling, Original Score, Production Design, Animated Short Film, Live Action Short Film, Sound Editing, Sound Mixing and Visual Effects.

At 5:38 am PST, the nominees will be announced in the following categories (listed here in no particular order): Actor in a Leading Role, Actor in a Supporting Role, Actress in a Leading Role, Actress in a Supporting Role, Animated Feature Film, Directing, Documentary Feature, Documentary Short Subject, Foreign Language Film, Original Song, Best Picture, Adapted Screenplay and Original Screenplay.

Keep afloat of all of the nominations via our live blog.

What film will get the most nominations?

The Shape of Water and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, judging by the award ceremonies we've already had this year, though the Oscars has more technical awards, which should give a nice bump to Blade Runner 2049 and Dunkirk.

How do I watch them?

On our live blog! Or if you live in the US, on several local broadcasters.

The Academy will almost certainly show them live on its YouTube and Facebook pages also. No fees or VPNs required.
