The 98th Academy Awards—currently scheduled for March 15th, 2026—will honor movies released in 2025.
This market will close before nominations are announced on January 22nd.
Each option is specific to a pair of director & film (another film by the same director would not count).
You can add your own options, but I reserve the right to N/A/edit if they are unserious/poorly formatted/etc. You can also request additions in the comments and I may add them.
