The 90th Oscar AwardsOscars website

The 90th Academy Awards is set to take place just over a week away on Sunday, March 4.

The full list of nominees was announced on Jan. 23 by Andy Serkis and Tiffany Haddish, with a number of films bagging multiple nominations. Guillermo del Toro's "The Shape of Water" was nominated for the most number of awards, totalling 13. These nominations include Best Picture, Best Director and Best Actress in a Leading Role for Sally Hawkins. Christopher Nolan's "Dunkirk" was nominated not just for the coveted Best Picture award, but also for Best Director and six other awards. Martin McDonagh's "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri" was nominated for seven categories, including Best Picture.

Many have come out with predictions and guesses on who the winners of the night will be, using the quality of the nominees and the current social climate as the bases for their predictions. For Best Picture in particular, "Dunkirk," "The Shape of Water" and Jordan Peele's "Get Out" seem to dominate conversations. However, it is still possible that one of the other nominated films will steal the award from under these three big contenders.

Meanwhile, actors Gary Oldman, Sam Rockwell, Frances McDormand and Allison Janney are predicted to win Best Actor, Supporting Actor, Actress and Supporting Actress, respectively. Guillermo del Toro is also the favorite to win Best Director, while his film, "The Shape of Water," is the widely speculated to win Best Picture.

So far, three different outlets have come up with the same predictions. Rolling Stone, polling aggregation website FiveThirtyEight and Irish news site Independent.ie all favor the same contenders for each of the aforementioned categories.

Late night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel will host this year's ceremony, making this his second Oscars hosting stint. The ceremony will air live from the Dolby Theatre at the Hollywood & Highland Center on Sunday, March 4 at 8:30 p.m. EST on ABC.

Usually, the Oscars take place in late February. However, organizers decided to schedule the event at a later date to avoid competing with the Winter Olympics, which is scheduled to run from Feb. 9 to Feb. 25.
