Hollywood heavyweights Timothee Chalamet, Ariana Grande, Demi Moore, and other Oscar nominees came together on Tuesday at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures for an annual dinner that allowed them to mingle before Sunday’s big night.
More than 200 film industry professionals, including actors, directors, producers, sound editors, and makeup artists, were invited to the event. Chalamet wore all black and clipped his name tag to his pants pocket, chatting with competitor Adrien Brody at the bar. Grande donned a black dress with pink feathers, while Moore opted for a white pant suit.
The dinner marked an annual tradition, now in its 97th year, where nominees gather before the Academy Awards show. This year’s event was held instead of the usual luncheon, which was canceled due to wildfires that hit Los Angeles and disrupted the awards season.
Academy President Janet Yang told the nominees that the ceremony would provide a “community and an atmosphere of support” for those recovering from the fires while celebrating top performances in film. The Oscars show on Sunday will honor talent, bringing joy to people worldwide, according to Yang.
