And the nominees are...
Zazie Beetz (Joker, Deadpool 2) and Jack Quaid (The Boys, Star Trek: Lower Decks) were tapped to announce the nominees for the 96th Academy Awards on Tuesday morning live from the Academy's Samuel Goldwyn Theater.
Following a strike that pushed the releases of a number of movies and successes of films like Barbie to Oppenheimer, 2023 may have been an unusual year for the entertainment industry -- but still one with a number of great performances and critically-beloved titles.
The 96th Oscars will be hosted by Jimmy Kimmel at the Dolby Theatre at Ovation Hollywood, airing live March 10 on ABC. It will be Kimmel's fourth time in the hosting role.
The biggest snubs of the morning appeared to be for Barbie -- which, while nominated for a ton of categories including Best Picture, Adapted Screenplay and Supporting Actor for Ryan Gosling, failed to earn noms for its star Margot Robbie and director Greta Gerwig.
When it comes to other snubs, one of the earliest ones of the morning came from the first category announced -- Best Actor in a Supporting Role -- as Charles Melton's moving performance from May December failed to crack the nominations after some early buzz and even some wins at earlier awards. Melton's costars Natalie Portman or Julianne Moore were left out in the cold as well.
In the same Supporting Actor category, meanwhile, the Academy also went with Mark Ruffalo over his Poor Things costar Willem Dafoe.
Also MIA from the nominations list: Leonardo DiCaprio for Killers of the Flower Moon, Zac Efron and his performance in The Iron Claw, Penelope Cruz in Ferrari, Andrew Scott and everybody else involved in All of Us Strangers, Ava DuVernay's Origin and Saltburn, Greta Lee for Past Lives and all things Priscilla.
Killers of the Flower Moon also failed to get any love for adapted screenplay, while The Color Purple's only main nomination went to Danielle Brooks -- as the film itself and the rest of the cast were ignored. Bradley Cooper also failed to get a nomination for directing Maestro, though the film is up for Best Picture and he was nominated for acting.
One nomination this morning also made history, meanwhile, as Lily Gladstone became the first Native American woman to be nominated for best actress at the Academy Awards for her work in Killers of the Flower Moon.
Also, for the first time, three of the best picture nominees were directed by women -- Gerwig for Barbie, Celine Song for Past Lives and Justin Triet for Anatomy of a Fall -- though only Triet was nominated in the directing category.
