Oscar nominations 2024 full list: Oppenheimer and Poor Things lead the pack
The Oscars have arrived – well, the nominations at least. With the Golden Globes and the Bafta nominations last week, the starting gun has been well and truly fired on 2024’s film awards season.
Yet there’s something unique about the Academy Awards. The Oscars carry a caché which no other gongs match. It is, after all, the one Hollywood love-in British terrestrial TV sees fit to broadcast. And as the Will Smith slapgate proved, it still has the power to shape news agendas.
Oppenheimer continues to blaze out in front, with 13 nominations across acting, directing and technical categories. Yorgos Lanthimos’s rowdy, raunchy Poor Things follows close behind with 11, closely tracked by Martin Scorsese’s late-career masterpiece Killers of the Flower Moon with 10. Meanwhile, Barbie – the other half of the Barbenheimer juggernaut – failed to land many of the biggest awards, aside from Best Picture, with Greta Gerwig’s directing efforts going unrecognised. And Andrew Haigh’s beautiful All of Us Strangers came away with nothing.
This year, nominations for the 23 categories of the 96th Academy Awards were announced by actors Zazie Beetz and Jack Quaid. The 2024 Oscars ceremony itself will take place on March 10, hosted by the comedian Jimmy Kimmel. ABC will be broadcasting in the US, while ITV will show the ceremony in the UK.
