- First Man
- Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom
- Mary Poppins Returns

- Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald
- Incredibles 2
- Isle of Dogs
- Mission: Impossible – Fallout
- Mortal Engines
- The Nutcracker and the Four Realms

It has also been previously reported that Disney didn’t officially submit Han Solo in time, as they missed the deadline, so Solo looks to be out of contention as well.
The 91st Oscars will be held on Sunday, Feb. 24, 2019, at the Dolby Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center in Hollywood, and will be televised live on The ABC Television Network. The Oscars also will be televised live in more than 225 countries and territories worldwide.
