Oscars 2022: Final Predictions For Nominations In Every Category

11. Best Animated Feature

NOMINEES:

Encanto

Flee

Luca

The Mitchells vs. The Machines

Raya and the Last Dragon

It doesn't seem like Best Animated Feature is going to be particularly adventurous this year, with three of the five probable nominees coming out of Disney, and the fourth an American animation from Netflix.

Danish animated documentary Flee is the only particularly "left-field" choice, but given that it's also in the mix for Best Documentary Feature, its omission here would be absurd.

Luca could perhaps get snubbed in favour of Sing 2 or much-loved Japanese animation Belle, but it's not terribly likely.
