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.
