The nominations for the 2024 Oscars were announced today with “Oppenheimer” leading the pack with 13 nods followed by “Poor Things” with 11. The 96th annual Academy Awards follow a year that saw the “Barbenheimer” phenomenon of “Barbie” and Christopher Nolan’s epic World War II biopic pack movie theaters around the world with each raking in hundreds of millions of dollars at the box office.
Tuesday’s announcement wasn’t without its share of surprises, with no best director nomination for Greta Gerwig for “Barbie” — she and Noah Baumbach were nominated for the movie’s adapted screenplay — and no acting nod for star Margot Robbie, who was also a producer for the best picture nominee. (“To say that I’m disappointed that they are not nominated in their respective categories would be an understatement,” said Ryan Gosling, who was nominated for his role as Ken.) Past Oscar winner Leonardo DiCaprio, who starred in “Killers of the Flower Moon,” also didn’t receive an acting nod this year.
Meanwhile, DiCaprio’s co-star Lily Gladstone became the first Native American to be nominated for best actress. America Ferrera scored a best supporting actress nomination for her performance in “Barbie” after she wasn’t nominated for a Golden Globe, and Justine Triet became the eighth woman nominated for best director for “Anatomy of a Fall.” Here is the full list of this year’s Oscar nominees:

Last week, Nolan’s drama about J. Robert Oppenheimer, the leader of the top-secret Manhattan Project that created the atomic bomb, led the nominations for the BAFTA Film Awards with 13 nods. “Poor Things,” starring Emma Stone and directed by Yorgos Lanthimos, received 11 nominations for the U.K.’s version of the Oscars.
At the Golden Globes earlier this month, “Oppenheimer” won five awards, including best drama motion picture. Nolan took home the Globe for best director. Cillian Murphy’s portrayal of the title character earned him best actor in a drama, and co-star Robert Downey Jr. won best supporting actor.
First-time Globe nominee Lily Gladstone won best drama actress for her performance in Martin Scorsese’s “Killers of the Flower Moon.”
“Poor Things” won the Globe for best musical or comedy motion picture, and Stone won the category’s best actress award. Paul Giamatti won best actor in a musical or comedy for Alexander Payne’s “The Holdovers,” and Giamatti’s co-star Da’Vine Joy Randolph — another first-time Globe nominee — won best supporting actress.
“Barbie” was nominated for nine Globes, including best director. It won two, best original song for Billie Eilish’s “What Was I Made for?” and the new award for cinematic and box office achievement.
