Bob Gazzale, AFI President and CEO, said they’re “honored to shine a proper light upon these works of art that lift us up and, ultimately, lead us to empathy” as the world continues to navigate difficult times.

He added they’re proud to gather this community of artists together to celebrate their extraordinary contributions in a private ceremony that will take place at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills on January 12, 2024.

Oppenheimer and Barbie, two films that found groundbreaking success at the summer box office after sparking the global phenomenon known as Barbenheimer, will be two of the films acknowledged by AFI, along with Killers of the Flower Moon, Past Lives, and Poor Things.

When it comes to the television field, Emmy front-runners Succession and The Bear are among this year’s honorees. The list also includes several rookie shows that knocked us off our feet with their first seasons, including Beef, Jury Duty, The Last of Us, and Poker Face.

Their annual list of the best movies of the year features several Oscar front-runners, including A Star is Born, Green Book and The Favourite. Several genre films that don’t have a promising future with the Academy also made the cut. Black Panther is the most notable example and people are really rooting for this Marvel smash-hit.

Alfonso Cuarón’s critically acclaimed drama Roma was honored with a special award, designated for a work of excellence outside AFI’s criteria for American film.

When it comes to TV categories, the institute went with a couple of pretty refreshing choices and made room for several new shows that deserve a larger audience. They included rookie series Barry, Pose and the Emmy-winning comedy The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
