New 2025 Oscar Rules Specify New Composer Eligibility, Inclusion Requirements, No More Drive-In Eligibility | Festivals & Awards | Roger Ebert

Many changes address pandemic-related exceptions and concerns about film qualifications such as Best Original Score. Films must have a qualifying theatrical release between January 1-December 31, 2024, with expanded theatrical runs in U.S. markets.
