  • The Oscars In Memoriam segment celebrated entertainment figures who died in the past year, though Michelle Trachtenberg was omitted.

The article from Variety discusses the controversy surrounding the 2025 Oscars' "In Memoriam" segment, which notably omitted actress Michelle Trachtenberg. Despite her significant contributions to film and television, including roles in "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Ice Princess," Trachtenberg was not included in the tribute. This oversight has sparked outrage among fans and industry peers, leading to widespread criticism of the Academy for its selection process. The segment, intended to honor those in the entertainment industry who passed away in the previous year, has historically faced scrutiny for its exclusions, but Trachtenberg's absence has particularly highlighted ongoing issues with the Academy's criteria for inclusion. The Academy has yet to comment on the matter, but the incident has reignited debates about the fairness and transparency of the "In Memoriam" selection process.
