Oscars 2024: the winners, the ceremony, the red carpet – follow the action live! | Oscars 2024
Key events
The red carpet unravels
Gwilym Mumford
Hello and welcome to The Guardian’s liveblog for the 96th Academy Awards, AKA the 2024 Oscars, AKA the first annual “how many little gold men can we load into Christopher Nolan’s arms before he topples over” awards.
Yes, if you are to believe the bookmakers, industry insiders and, erm, us, tonight will be a complete stroll for Oppenheimer, the nominal best picture frontrunner since it was released way back in July. With a fair wind, Nolan’s film might even trouble the record for most Oscar wins too. So it may well be worth tuning in to see history being made, if nothing else.
But there’s plenty else, honest: a titanic Stone-on-stone tussle between Emma Stone and Lily Gladstone for best actress, a star-stuffed roster of awards presenters (Spielberg! Theron! Nyong’o! McConaughey! Pacino! Zendaya!), musical performances from Billie Eilish, and 65 Kens and a Ryan Gosling, and much more besides.
The big news though – for those of us sat in a starkly lit UK newsroom into the wee small hours, at least – is that this year’s ceremony starts an hour earlier than usual, at 11pm GMT, and 16:00 PT/19:00 ET. And the organisers have said that the ceremony will last a sprightly three and a half hours – that’s a shade over the runtime of Killers of the Flower Moon, or 1 and 1/6th of an Oppenheimer.
The red carpet action is already underway, with Chicken Shop Date star (and, briefly, roving Guardian reporter) Amelia Dimoldenberg among those on awkward interview duties – though she’ll do well to top Ashley Graham’s wince-inducing encounter with Hugh Grant from last year. We’ll have pics and insight from the Guardian fashion team, and then it’s the ceremony itself in just three short hours time. Join us!
