Cillian Murphy in “Oppenheimer” and Emma Stone in “Poor Things”
Oscar Nominations for Lead Actors “Oppenheimer” and “Poor Things.” Billie Eilish and Mark Ronson are nominated
The 96th Academy Awards are set for March 10
January 23, 2024
The nominations for the 96th Academy Awards were just announced in Los Angeles by actors Zazie Beetz and Jack Quaid. Oppenheimer led with a total of 13 nominations, including Best Picture, followed by Poorwith 11 nominations. Barbie garnered eight nominations, including for two of her songs: “I'm Just Ken” (music and lyrics by Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt, sung by Ryan Gosling) and “What Was I Made For?” (music and lyrics by Billie Eilish and Finneas O'Connell, song by Eilish).
Notable offenses include Greta Gerwig not being nominated for Best Director Barbie and star Margot Robbie is not nominated for Best Actress. She was also disqualified for best actress Past Lives star Greta Lee (and the film's director Celine Song was also not nominated).
Only one woman was nominated for Best Director, Justine Triet Anatomy of a fall, although this is better than last year, when no women were nominated. It looks like the Academy should expand the Best Director nominations to 10, one per Best Picture nominee (this year it would equal three women and one black man, instead of four white men and one woman). And maybe the acting categories should be expanded to seven nominations each instead of five, too many worthy performances are shut out every year.
Other offenses include Daniel Pemberton not being nominated for Best Original Score Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse and Saltburn without getting a single nomination.
The 96th Academy Awards, which will take place on March 10, will be broadcast live on ABC. See all the nominations below.
