Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer dominates Academy Awards 2024 nominations

The nominations for Academy Awards 2024 were announced on Tuesday and Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer starring Cillian Murphy dominates the list, securing 13 nominations. Emma Stone starring Poor Things managed to secure 11 nominations. (Via Vanity Fair)

Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro starring in Killers of the Flower Moon received 10 nominations with 2023’s biggest movie Barbie by Greta Gerwig only managing to secure 8 nominations. Since Oppenheimer and Barbie were released on the same day, there have been constant comparisons between the two movies in terms of awards and box office collections. It won’t be wrong to say that even though Barbie beat Oppenheimer at the box office, Nolan’s movie has been ahead of Barbie when it comes to awards.

Margot Robbie snubbed for her performance in Barbie at Oscars 2024

Surprisingly, even though lead actor Ryan Gosling was recognized by the Academy and earned a nomination for Best Supporting Actor, Margot Robbie was snubbed. Robbie’s performance as Barbie received critical acclaim but it turns out the Acamdey does feel the same way.

Director Greta Gerwig was also snubbed by the Academy for the Best Director award. Only one female director; Justine Triet made it to the list. Actress America Ferra was nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her work in Barbie.
