The excitement is building as the 2024 Oscar nominations were unveiled today, spotlighting “Oppenheimer” with a remarkable 13 nominations, closely trailed by “Poor Things” with an impressive 11 nods. This year’s 96th annual Academy Awards come on the heels of the cinematic sensations, including the ‘Barbenheimer’ craze surrounding “Barbie” and the resounding success of Christopher Nolan’s epic World War II film, “Killers of the Flower Moon,” both dominating box offices globally and generating hundreds of millions in revenue.
Tuesday’s revelation brought its share of surprises, notably the absence of a Best Director nod for Greta Gerwig’s work on “Barbie.” Instead, Gerwig and Noah Baumbach earned a nomination for the movie’s adapted screenplay. Furthermore, star Margot Robbie, also a producer for the Best Picture nominee, did not receive an acting nomination. Expressing his disappointment, Ryan Gosling, nominated for his role as Ken, stated, “To say that I’m disappointed that they are not nominated in their respective categories would be an understatement.” Additionally, past Oscar winner Leonardo DiCaprio, despite starring in “Killers of the Flower Moon,” did not secure an acting nod this year.
Adding historic milestones to the nominations, Leonardo DiCaprio’s co-star Lily Gladstone makes history as the first Native American nominated for Best Actress. America Ferrera secures a Best Supporting Actress nomination for her role in “Barbie,” a notable recognition following her absence from the Golden Globe nominations. Furthermore, Justine Triet joins the ranks as the eighth woman nominated for Best Director for “Anatomy of a Fall.” The complete list of this year’s Oscar nominees is detailed below:
