On Monday (9 December), the latest round of nominees considered the best films and TV shows of the year were named by Mindy Kaling and Morris Chestnut during a live broadcast from Los Angeles.
Films in contention for trophies at the forthcoming ceremony include hit musical Wicked, Sean Baker’s Palme d’or-winning Anora and Brady Corbet’s epic drama The Brutalist, which was hailed a “masterpice” after its festival premiere. The latter received seven nominations.
Edward Berger’s Conclave, starring Ralph Fiennes and Stanley Tucci, has also received several nominations, as has Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown, which stars nominees Timothée Chalamet and Edward Norton. But it was Netflix’s divisive musical drama Emilia Pérez that led the pack, with eight nominations.
One of this year’s best nominations arrived in the Best Director category, with Payal Kapadia earning a nod for acclaimed Indian film All We Imagine as Light.
Kapadia was nominated alongside Baker, Corbet and Berger as well as Coralie Fargeat (The Substance) and Jacques Audiard (Emilia Pérez). However, Wicked director Jon M Chu, hotly tipped for a nod, was snubbed.
Meanwhile, in the TV categories, The Penguin, Baby Reindeer, Slow Horses and Shogun have all received recognition – but The Bear was the most nominated series, garnering five.
