Barbie, Oppenheimer, and Poor Things Dominate 2024 Critics Choice Award Nominations

The Critics Choice Award nominations for 2024 have been revealed.

Critics' Choice Awards 202 nominees were announced today, and the assembly of the year's best shows and movies include a lot of familiar faces. Fan favorites like Barbie, Oppenheimer and Poor Things are well-represented. Other entires like Killers of the Flower Moon take up a lot of real estate on the nominees list along with Past Lives and The Holdovers. So, there's a lot of different tastes on display. Late arrivals to the calendar year like American Fiction, Saltburn and The Color Purple got a seat at the table for Best Picture.

Over on the individual performance nominations front, Barbie has Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling up for Best Actress and Best Supporting Actor. As expected, Cillian Murphy's turn in Oppenheimer netted him some love from critics for Best Actor. May December had the entire Internet talking last week and Julianne Moore's work has her eyeing a Best Supporting Actress award. The race for Best Director is going to be wild with Greta Gerwig, Christopher Nolan, Martin Scorsese and Yorgos Lanthimos all bunched together. 

You can see the full list of nominees below.
