She is widely considered the frontrunner having already secured a string of trophies including the Golden Globe and Critics’ Choice award.

There is a Scottish connection to the film, which is an adaptation of Maggie O'Farrell's award-winning novel about the family life of the Bard and the death of his young son.

O'Farrell, who is Northern Irish, lives in Edinburgh.

Buckley will compete against Rose Byrne for If I Had Legs I’d Kick You, Kate Hudson for Song Sung Blue, Emma Stone for Bugonia and Renate Reinsve for Sentimental Value.

Mosaku is nominated for the best supporting actor Oscar for her performance in Ryan Coogler’s vampire drama Sinners.

She will compete against Elle Fanning and Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas for Sentimental Value, Amy Madigan for Weapons and Teyana Taylor for One Battle After Another.

Radiohead star Jonny Greenwood is nominated for his score for One Battle After Another. He was previously nominated for Phantom Thread and The Power Of The Dog.

Irish star Paul Mescal had been widely tipped to be nominated for an Oscar for his role in Hamnet but was missing from the supporting actor category.

Benicio Del Toro and Sean Penn were both recognised in the category for One Battle After Another, alongside Jacob Elordi for Frankenstein, Stellan Skarsgard for Sentimental Value and Delroy Lindo for Sinners.
