Hollywood stars will walk a champagne-colored carpet at the Oscars on Sunday when organizers aim to keep the spotlight on “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” “Top Gun: Maverick” and other nominated films that brought crowds back to cinemas. | Reuters

Producers said they plan to celebrate the moviegoing rebound of the past year, one that some feared might never happen when streaming took hold during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Last year, the television audience for the Academy Awards ranked as the second-lowest ever with 16.6 million viewers. Pop superstar Rihanna also will take the stage, performing “Lift Me Up” from “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.”One novelty in the broadcast: QR codes will flash on TV screens ahead of commercial breaks with links to two- to three-minute videos about nominees. Organizers hope that sharing information about the contenders will give viewers people to root for and keep them watching.

Star Michelle Yeoh faces off in the best actress category with Cate Blanchett, who played a devious orchestra conductor in “Tar.” Best actor may be a toss-up between “Elvis” star Austin Butler and Brendan Fraser, who played a severely obese man in “The Whale.”
