Academy Aperture 2025 is a new diversity standard for Best Picture nominees created by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences that is set to begin in 2024.[1] Deadline Hollywood described this as a "plan to require that Best Picture contenders meet at least two of four inclusion standards aimed at increasing screen depictions or employment of underrepresented groups — women, specified racial and ethnic groups, LGBTQ+ individuals, people with cognitive and physical disabilities, and those hard of hearing."[2] It began in part in response to hashtag use on social media.[3]
