The movie, a masterly portrait of the father of the atomic bomb, led the pack, followed by “Poor Things” with 11 nominations and Martin Scorsese’s “Killers of the Flower Moon” with 10.

Despite its high-grossing success, Barbie received eight nominations, missing out on key nods for Greta Gerwig as director and Margot Robbie for Best Actress. Ryan Gosling, a supporting actor nominee for “Barbie,” expressed disappointment over the omissions.

Oppenheimer, released on the same day as Barbie, grossed nearly $1 billion and secured nominations for its director Nolan and stars Cillian Murphy, Robert Downey Jr., and Emily Blunt. The film is considered a frontrunner for Best Picture at the upcoming 96th Academy Awards.
