The nominations have been announced for the inaugural Critics Choice Super Awards which honors the best in superhero, science fiction/fantasy, horror, action, and animation movies and series.
We'll be in the mix for this super event because our very own Chris Bumbray is a voting member of the CCA and it looks like he'll have some tough choices to make because there is an impressive lineup of nominees. Netflix received a total of 35 nominations while the critically-acclaimed film, PALM SPRINGS, leads all film nods with five possible wins. HBO's Lovecraft Country leads series nominations with six in total.
Star Trek fans are also in for a treat as Picard himself, Patrick Stewart, and Sonequa Martin-Green, star of Star Trek: Discovery, will accept the Legacy Award for the Star Trek franchise. The award is being handed out to recognize the cultural impact that the franchise has had across multiple decades while continuing to appeal to and grow its loyal fanbase with new stories and characters. The honor comes at a great time for the franchise because it will be celebrating its 55th anniversary.
The Critics Choice Super Awards will be hosted by Kevin Smith and Dani Fernandez and they're set to air on The CW on January 10, 2021, at 8:00 ET/PT and will stream the next day for free on The CW App and cwtv.com.
