In a bizarre yet understandable race against time itself, the 92nd Academy Awards will take place on Feb. 9 and nominations were announced Monday morning.

Issa Rae and John Cho made the announcement in two parts, furthering buzz around this year's film favorites such as The Irishman and 1917. The nominations include Tom Hanks' first Best Actor nomination in 20 years, as well as double acting nominations for Scarlett Johansson for her work in Marriage Story and Jojo Rabbit.

Little Women director Greta Gerwig was shut out of the Best Director category despite acting and screenplay nods for the film. Gerwig was nominated in 2018 for Lady Bird.

Read on for the full list of nominees.
