The nominations for the 91st Annual Academy Awards are out.

Hosts Kumail Nanjiani (The Big Sick) and Tracee Ellis Ross (Black-ish) made the announcement, and the list looks good!

Alfonso Cuaron's Roma and Yorgos Lanthimos's The Favourite have made a clean sweep at the Oscars with 10 nods each, followed closely by Bradley Cooper's A Star Is Born and Adam McKay's Vice with eight nominations each.

Superhero fans will have fun at the Oscars too this year, thanks to Black Panther making history!

Black Panther, which has received seven nominations, is the first superhero film to get the Best Picture Oscar nomination.

Avengers: Infinity Wars make it to the Oscar list too, along with Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and Incredibles 2!

The Oscars will be held on February 25. It remains to be seen if Hollywood's grandest show will have a host after Kevin Hart pulled out.
