Oscar nominations for the 96th Academy Awards have been announced, with Oppenheimer leading the pack and the ceremony scheduled for March 10.

The highly anticipated Oscars nominations for the 96th Academy Awards have been announced, signaling the official start of the 2024 film awards season. The Oscars hold a special significance in the world of cinema, with a level of prestige and influence that sets them apart from other awards ceremonies. This year, the nominations are dominated by Oppenheimer, which has received an impressive 13 nominations across various categories, including acting, directing, and technical achievements. Yorgos Lanthimos's Poor Things and Martin Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon are also strong contenders, with 11 and 10 nominations respectively. However, Barbie, the other half of the Barbenheimer juggernaut, fell short in many categories, and Greta Gerwig's directing efforts went unrecognized. Additionally, Andrew Haigh's All of Us Strangers failed to secure any nominations.

The nominations were revealed by actors Zazie Beetz and Jack Quaid, and the Oscars ceremony is set to take place on March 10, with comedian Jimmy Kimmel hosting the event. In the US, the ceremony will be broadcasted by ABC, while ITV will air the ceremony in the UK.

The nominations span 23 categories, and some of the standout nominees include Justine Triet and Arthur Harari for Anatomy of a Fall, Billie Eilish and Finneas for What Was I Made For? from Barbie, Jon Batiste for It Never Went Away, and Wahzhazhe (A Song for My People) from Killers of the Flower Moon.

As the film industry gears up for the Oscars, the excitement and anticipation continue to build, with fans and industry insiders eagerly awaiting the outcome of this year's awards. The Oscars nominations have set the stage for a memorable and fiercely competitive awards season, and all eyes will be on the ceremony in March to see which films and individuals will emerge victorious.
