Oscar has a song in his heart, as evidenced by the number of Academy Award nominations announced Thursday for movie musicals. Two of the three most-nominated films, “Emilia Pérez” with 13 nods and “Wicked” with 10 (tied with drama “The Brutalist”), are song-and-dance spectacles, a rarity in a contest that usually honours dramatic features. The last musical to win best picture was “Chicago” in 2003, and that followed a three-decade drought.

A strong showing by female directors and a resurgence of thrillers (Tom Cruise! Michael Cera!) and other genre movies are among the highlights of the #Cannes2025 Official Selection: https://t.co/YhNdSW6wO6 https://t.co/4hNgI4r7VV
Worst-kept secret revealed: Tom Cruise will return to the Cannes Film Festival with the world premiere of “Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning,” with an out-of-competition screening May 14 at the Grand Théâtre Lumière. It’s only Cruise’s third trek to the fest. #Cannes2025 https://t.co/2eD3D91nFU
Robert De Niro will receive an honorary Palme d’Or at the May 13 opening of the 78th Cannes Film Festival. He has “close feelings” for the fest. "Especially now when there's so much in the world pulling us apart, Cannes brings us together … It's like coming home." #Cannes2025 https://t.co/n6vmx3fd6E
