The Oscar nominees 2024 are revealed, with ‘Oppenheimer’ leading the pack with 13 nominations, including Best Picture, Best Director and Lead Actor.
Presented by the Academy of Motion Pictures and Sciences, the 96th annual Academy Awards are just around the corner, taking place on March 10 at the world famous Dolby Theatre in Hollywood. Returning for the fourth time, Jimmy Kimmel takes the stage as this year’s Oscar host, playing the role of ring leader in what is likely to be an exciting night of celebration.
The Oscars is the pinnacle of the awards season, and completes the run of ceremonies that have taken place over the last few months.
Leading the list of nominees this year is Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer, which has amassed 13 nominations, whilst Yorgos Lanthimos’ Poor Things and Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon both follow with 11 and 10 nominations respectively.
