The 2022 Oscar nominees have been revealed – and Netflix's The Power of the Dog is the outright leader of the pack with 12 nominations.
Off the back of its sizable nomination display at the 2022 BAFTAs on February 3, the Benedict Cumberbatch-starring western drama is set to compete for multiple gongs at the Oscars, too. Jane Campion's latest flick finds itself up for awards including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor (Cumberbatch), Adapted Screenplay and Actor in a Supporting Role (for Kodi Smit-McPhee and Jesse Plemons).
Denis Villeneuve's Dune (10 nominations), Kenneth Branagh's Belfast (seven), and Stephen Spielberg's West Side Story (seven) also scored big at this year's Oscars nominations ceremony. The Will Smith-starring King Richard has also been nominated in six categories.
However, there's no place for A24's The Green Knight – the Dev Patel-starring medieval fantasy epic – among the nominees. Meanwhile, Sony Picture's big Oscars hope in Spider-Man: No Way Home picked up just one nomination in the Best Visual Effects category. Marvel Studios scooped two nominations in the VFX category, one being No Way Home and the other Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings .
In something of a shock, Encanto's smash hit "We Don't Talk About Bruno" hasn't been nominated for Best Original Sony at this year's Oscars. The track, which is the first Disney song to top the US's Billboard Hot 100 and UK's Official Music charts in 26 years, lost out to "Dos Oruguitas", even though Lin-Manuel Miranda penned the lyrics and score to both musical numbers.
The 94th Oscars ceremony, which will take place on March 27 at L.A's Dolby Theatre, also showcased the growing power of the world's biggest streamers. In total, 45% of the nominees were either a full streaming platform release, or a production that simultaneously launched in theaters and on a streaming service.

Facebook Reels launches worldwide for iOS and Android alongside new features
Similar to Instagram Reels, Facebook is launching its own take on the feature first influenced by TikTok, outside of the USA from today (February 22), rolling out to 150 countries, including the UK.
In a blogpost , Facebook is also announcing features to help creators earn money from the reels that they create, alongside reels that can last for up to 60 seconds, and more features to come.
Facebook Reels launched in the USA back in September 2021 , with users being able to access short videos from friends and pages, all in one section.
But the elephant in the room is to wonder where Instagram fits in this, and whether Facebook Reels has a place alongside TikTok , Snapchat and others.
New features also arrive
Alongside the ability to create 60-second reels, you can also create remixes of existing reels that others have created. This works similar to duets on TikTok, where you can use an existing video to showcase your reactions or respond to the original video.
If you're midway through making a new Reel and you need to pause, a new 'save to draft' option can help you pick off where you left off later in the day.
There's also going to be ways to share your Reels through Stories, alongside a dedicated Reels label at the top of the Facebook app to make it easier for users to find other videos.
Finally, ways to monetize Reels are slowly arriving, such as an upcoming feature called Stars , which is a way to 'tip' creators while a live Reel is ongoing.

Reels looks to mimic what's made TikTok so successful so far. Instagram Reels has seemingly done well for Meta, but Instagram Stories is still its shining jewel.
Time will tell whether having two types of Reels from Meta will be worth having, but for now, better features with a worldwide rollout could help Facebook pivot to video in a better way, compared to its previous efforts of Facebook Live and Facebook Video feeds.
