New Delhi: Worldwide, the most important and esteemed accolades will be presented during the 96th Academy Awards or the Oscars 2024. With the Oscars, the film industry hopes to recognize and celebrate cinematic excellence from across the world.
When it came to the realm of film, 2023 was a banner year. Many independent directors dropped pictures at various intervals throughout the year, giving Hollywood a memorable impression. Additionally, the box office profited in more ways than one due to the enormous clash between Barbienheimer.
In 2024, we have already seen many major award shows, and now it’s time to get ready for the Oscars.
Nominees of Oscars 2024
After two blockbuster films—Oppenheimer and Barbie—dominated headlines in 2023, the 2024 Oscars are sure to be a huge deal. Oppenheimer, Christopher Nolan’s biography film, is heavily favoured to win numerous Oscars and leads with thirteen nominations, including Best Picture and Best Director. Barbie, Poor Things, and Killers of the Flower Moon are some other outstanding films to be selected as Oscar nominees.
These are just a few of the huge films that featured legendary actors like Cillian Murphy, Margot Robbie, and Emma Stone and were overseen by the legendary Nolan, Greta Gerwig, and Martin Scorsese.
