The road to the red carpet unfolds before the films released throughout this year 2021. The 94th edition of the Oscars will take place on next March 27, and although we will not know the nominees until February 8, the organizers have published a preliminary list with the shortlisted in categories such as best soundtrack, best special effects or best makeup. Feature films like Dune, James Bond 007: No Time to Die or Spider-Man: No Way Home are among the candidates.
There is also The Matrix Resurrections, the new film in the science fiction saga directed by Lana Wachowski. Characters like Neo o Trinity, who are once again played by Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss, the stars of the original trilogy. It is a kind of independent sequel to the first, although it will contain elements of the next two.
Below we offer you the list with movies who are competing for the Oscar nominations.
