Sekolahnewa – Inilah saatnya para nomine Oscar dan tokoh industri yang telah berjuang selama bertahun-tahun untuk mendapatkan pengakuan diundang untuk bergabung dengan Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Untuk tahun 2025, The Academy telah mengundang 534 orang untuk bergabung dengan klub tersebut. Jumlah tersebut merupakan peningkatan yang signifikan dari 487 orang tahun lalu, 398 orang pada tahun 2023, dan 397 orang pada tahun 2022. Beberapa nama yang baru bergabung antara lain Ariana Grande, Dave Bautista, Mikey Madison, Jodie Comer, Gillian Anderson, Sebstian Stan, Brandi Carlile, dan Lena Waithe.

Untuk kelas tahun ini, AMPAS telah mengungkapkan bahwa 41% anggotanya adalah perempuan, 45% berasal dari komunitas yang kurang terwakili, dan 55% berasal dari 60 negara di luar Amerika Serikat. Sebanyak 91 orang adalah nomine Oscar, termasuk 26 pemenang, dan tiga pemenang Penghargaan Ilmiah dan Teknis (SCITECH).

Untuk memperjelas, penekanannya adalah pada “undangan.” Hanya karena AMPAS mengundang seseorang untuk menjadi anggota, bukan berarti mereka menerimanya. Ada penerima yang tidak menjadi anggota di masa lalu. Selain itu, 12 orang undangan telah diundang ke beberapa cabang. Ini biasanya melibatkan penulis-sutradara yang akan memberi tahu The Academy tentang preferensi cabang di antara keduanya.

Yang patut diingat, ada satu nama yang tidak ada dalam daftar: nominasi Aktris Terbaik Karla Sofía Gascón dari film terkenal “Emilia Perez”. Biasanya, nominasi akting menjamin undangan ke klub tersebut. Tampaknya kontroversi atas pernyataan daring Gascón yang terungkap pada paruh kedua kampanye Oscar tahun ini memengaruhi statusnya di komite seleksi. Sekali lagi, ini adalah penghinaan yang langka dan jelas.

Undangan penting lainnya dari sisi akting termasuk Kieran Culkin, Emma Corrin, Danielle Deadwyler, calon pemenang Emmy Stephen Graham, Paul Walter Hauser, Jason Momoa, Margaret Qualley, Andrew Scott, dan, tentu saja, Fernanda Torres.

Penulis dan sutradara ternama yang diundang termasuk Brady Corbet, Clint Bentley, Danny Strong, Ti West, Payal Kapadia, Jeymes Samuel, Coralie Fargeat, Bi Gan, Gia Coppola, Mike Flanagan, Halina Reijn, Gints Zilbalods, dan Jane Schoenbrun. Dalam pemilihan yang mengejutkan, Channing Godfrey Peoples diundang ke cabang penulis dengan satu penghargaan film (dan satu penghargaan non-nominasi). Itu juga sangat langka.

Perlu dicatat juga bahwa Jimmy Kimmel dan Conan O’Brien diundang untuk bergabung dalam cabang Associates.

Mike Goodridge, yang diundang untuk bergabung dengan cabang Produser, tampaknya menjadi mantan anggota HFPA pertama yang menjadi pemilih Oscar.

Seperti yang dicatat oleh The Academy dalam pengumuman resmi mereka, “Kecuali untuk Associates, kandidat harus disponsori oleh dua anggota Academy dari cabang atau kategori yang ingin diikuti oleh kandidat tersebut. Selain itu, para nomine Academy Award secara otomatis dipertimbangkan untuk menjadi anggota pada tahun mereka dinominasikan dan tidak memerlukan sponsor. Komite eksekutif cabang meninjau kandidat, dan rekomendasi untuk keanggotaan dipertimbangkan dan disetujui oleh Dewan Gubernur Academy. Keanggotaan Associate diperpanjang hanya melalui undangan melalui Komite Keanggotaan dan Dewan Gubernur untuk menghormati pengabdian kepada Academy dan komitmen terhadap industri film.”

It’s that time of year when Oscar nominees and industry figures who have fought for years for recognition get invited to join the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. For 2025, The Academy has invited 534 to join the club. That’s a significant jump from 487 last year, 398 in 2023, and 397 in 2022. Some of the familiar names on the new membership list include Ariana Grande, Dave Bautista, Mikey Madison, Jodie Comer, Gillian Anderson, Sebstaian Stan, Brandi Carlile, and Lena Waithe.

For this year’s class, AMPAS has disclosed that 41% are women, 45% belong to underrepresented communities, and 55% are from 60 countries and territories outside the United States. 91 are Oscar nominees, including 26 winners, and three Scientific and Technical Award winners among the invitees.

To clarify, the emphasis is on “invites.” Just because AMPAS invites someone to membership, it does not mean they accept. There have been recipients who have passed on membership in the past. Moreover, 12 invitees have been invited into multiple branches. This usually involves writers-directors who will inform The Academy of their branch preference between the two.

More notably, there was one major snub not on the list: Best Actress nominee Karla Sofía Gascón of “Emilia Perez” fame. Usually, an acting nomination guarantees an invite to the club. It appears that the controversy over Gascón‘s online statements revealed in the second half of this year’s Oscar campaign affected her status on the selection committee. To reiterate, this is a rare and pointed snub.

Other notable invitees on the acting side include Kieran Culkin, Emma Corrin, Danielle Deadwyler, future Emmy-winner Stephen Graham, Paul Walter Hauser, Jason Momoa, Margaret Qualley, Andrew Scott, and, of course, Fernanda Torres.

Notable writers and directors invited include Brady Corbet, Clint Bentley, Danny Strong, Ti West, Payal Kapadia, Jeymes Samuel, Coralie Fargeat, Bi Gan, Gia Coppola, Mike Flanagan, Halina Reijn, Gints Zilbalods, and Jane Schoenbrun. In an eyebrow-raising selection, Channing Godfrey Peoples was invited into the writers branch with one film credit (and a non-nominated one at that). That is also very rare.

It should also be noted that Jimmy Kimmel and Conan O’Brien were both invited to join in the Associates branch.

In what we believe is a first, Mike Goodridge, who was invited to join the Producers branch, appears to have become the first former HFPA member to become an Oscar voter.

As The Academy noted in their official announcement, “Except for Associates, candidates must be sponsored by two Academy members from the branch or category to which the candidate seeks admission. In addition, Academy Award nominees are automatically considered for membership in the year in which they are nominated and do not require sponsors.  Branch executive committees review candidates, and recommendations for membership are considered and approved by the Academy’s Board of Governors. Associate membership is extended by invitation only through the Membership Committee and the Board of Governors in honor of service to the Academy and commitment to the film industry.”

The full list of invitees is as follows:
