Oscar Nominations Night 2025
The Oscar nominations night at Dublin City Hall last month was an event where Fís Éireann/Screen Ireland unveiled its 'Slate of Productions' for 2025. This event occurred shortly before the announcement of the 2025 Oscar nominations. While the main Oscar nominations announcement took place in Los Angeles, the Dublin event focused on celebrating Irish talent and films that were in contention for nominations.
Several Irish films and talents were highlighted. Notably, the film "Kneecap" was expected to be nominated in multiple categories but ended up not receiving any nominations. Other Irish films shortlisted included "Room Taken" and "Clodagh" for Best Live Action Short, among others.
Despite high hopes, the actual Oscar nominations did not include major nods for Irish talent this year. "Kneecap" missed out on nominations, and other expected nominations like those for Saoirse Ronan, Paul Mescal, and Brendan Gleeson did not materialise.
