Academy Award nominations 2022: Billie Eilish, Olivia Colman and more react to Oscar nominations

LOS ANGELES -- Nominations for the 94th Oscars are here, and after actors Leslie Jordan and Tracee Ellis Ross revealed nominations in all 23 Academy Award categories, Hollywood is reacting.

Will Smith was nominated for his role in "King Richard." It's been over a decade since his last Academy Award nomination, and some are wondering if this could be the year he wins for the first time.

Here's how artists are reacting:

Billie Eilish and Finneas, best original song for 'No Time to Die'

"Words cannot describe how honored and excited we are to have been nominated for an Academy Award for our song 'No Time To Die.' It was a lifelong dream of ours to write a Bond theme, and one we never thought would ever come true. It's completely unbelievable that we are here being recognized for this song, and this is a peak life experience for us as songwriters and artists. To be recognized today among these other incredible nominees is something we most certainly do not take for granted. Thank you to the Academy, from the bottom of our hearts. Thank you to Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson for allowing us this incredible opportunity, and to be part of Daniel Craig's unparalleled legacy as James Bond. Thank you to Cary Joji Fukunaga, and last but not least, thank you to Hans Zimmer, Stephen Lipson and Johnny Marr for being an absolute joy to work with on this song."

Ariana DeBose, best actress in a supporting role for 'West Side Story'

"My morning walk along the river was extra special today. I am absolutely overjoyed by this morning's news. To be recognized alongside such incredible women for their inspiring performances is surreal enough, but to share this celebration with Steven, Kristie, and the entire team that made our beautiful movie is a dream come true. I'm so thankful to the Academy for this acknowledgement and am beyond grateful to Steven, Kristie, and everyone at Amblin and Disney. What a moment."

They would have been overwhelmed by this incredible honour - as am I. Given a story as personal as this one, it's a hell of a day for my family, and the family of our film. I thank Academy voters for their incredible and generous recognition. We are honoured to be among the other extraordinary nominees in a remarkable year for films, and I salute the superb cast and crew of Belfast for their exceptional talent, comradeship and kindness."

Our family of hundreds of crew set out to make the most original, heartwarming, funny, surprising and groundbreaking film we could make, and to do it with the love and enthusiasm of a movie lover making her first film. Our art team constantly proved that you could break formulas and invent new tools to have CG animation reveal our artists' humanity instead of hiding it. Our LGBTQ+ teammates helped us make our main character authentically queer. And all our artists infused every shot with the love and passion and infectious joy of our fellow first time filmmaker main character: Katie Mitchell. This movie is a celebration of humanity, and we're so grateful to the humans who made it, and just as grateful to the humans who loved it."

"Dos Oruguitas" from "Encanto" was nominated under the original song category, and Lin-Manuel Miranda composed the work. Miranda, who has already won Tonys, Grammys and Emmys, would achieve EGOT status if his piece wins.

He took to Twitter Tuesday morning to say "Grateful grateful grateful!"
