The BAFTA nominations have been announced with Oppenheimer and Poor Things leading the way

Awards season continues. For a year with a lot of notable box office anomalies, the award recognitions are stacked with popular choices. The Golden Globes kicked things off, and then the SAG Awards and Critics Choice Awards started to show audiences who are seen as the favorites to win this year. Then, the Emmys threw a spotlight on the achievements made in television this past year, and now the list for the 2024 BAFTAs have been announced.

As seen in the previous awards ceremonies, Oppenheimer and Poor Things lead the charge in nominations. Christopher Nolan’s atomic bomb film is a stunning achievement for the director as he is known to put out summer films that straddle the line of prestigious awards movies, and Oppenheimer is finally cracking through with nominations for his actors’ performances, as well as his directing and screenwriting. Emma Stone has also been the favorite this year with Poor Things, as she gives a bold performance in her Frankenstein-esque tale.

Below is a list of the more notable categories. However, if you’d like to view the full list, head on over to Deadline where you can get a complete overview of the nominations in all categories, including Outstanding British Film, Best Cinematography, Best Editing, and much more.
