After months of anticipation, the British Academy finally unveiled the list of BAFTA nominees, bringing many surprises our way. Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer emerged as the top contender with 13 nods, with Yorgos Lanthimos’ Poor Things right behind with 11.
Oppenheimer and Poor Things are both in the running for the coveted best film award, along with Anatomy of a Fall, The Holdovers, and Killers of the Flower Moon. Despite making it to the same category at many international award shows, Greta Gerwig’s Barbie didn’t make the cut in this field, and it only received five nominations.
Poor Things also received a nod for the best British film, where it will be competing against the likes of All of Us Strangers, Saltburn, Wonka, and The Zone of Interest, which scored an impressive nine nominations.
“Killers of the Flower Moon” will also be among the main contenders at this year’s BAFTAs with nine nominations, despite being snubbed in some of the major categories. Most shockingly, Lily Gladstone and Leonardo DiCaprio didn’t receive nods for their lead performances, and neither did the director Martin Scorsese.
The 2024 BAFTA Awards will return to the Royal Festival Hall in London on February 18, with David Tennant hosting the show for the very first time.
