Spot the future Oscar winners! Nominees say cheese for the 2025 class photo

"Everyone say Oscar nominee!"

Meet the Oscars class of 2025, (mainly) all smiling and sitting up straight for the annual class photo.

The event usually takes place several weeks before the ceremony, but was called off earlier in the year due to the wildfires that hit Los Angeles in January.

It's a chance for first-time hopefuls and up-and-coming talent to mingle with the biggest stars and award veterans, including Demi Moore, Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, Adrien Brody, Timothee Chalamet and Ralph Fiennes.

There's also an Oscars dinner - and the red (cream) carpet before the actual red carpet. Here are a few more photos from the event.

Best actress nominee Cynthia Erivo helped her fellow best actress nominee Demi Moore with her outfit.

Erivo also caught up with Conclave star and best actor nominee Ralph Fiennes.

One of the nominated films, Sing Sing, tells the story of a group of men incarcerated at a maximum security prison in New York. Divine G Whitfield (left above) is played by Colman Domingo, while Clarence Maclin (right) plays himself.

Speaking of Domingo, here he is - he's nominated for best actor for his performance in Sing Sing.

"Get me next to the Oscar." Erivo's Wicked co-star and best supporting actress nominee Ariana Grande was also in attendance.

As was Zoe Saldana, who is nominated in the same category - although her Emilia Perez co-star Karla Sofia Gascon, a best actress nominee, was notable by her absence following controversy over the resurfacing of some of her older tweets.
