Everything Everywhere All at Once leads the nominees for the 2023 Academy Awards with 11.
The multiverse-hopping action-comedy scooped nominations for Best Picture, Best Actress for Michelle Yeoh, Best Supporting Actor for Ke Huy Quan, Best Supporting Actress for Jamie Lee Curtis and Stephanie Hsu and Best Director and Best Original Screenplay for Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, among others.
The other frontrunners were Martin McDonagh's The Banshees of Inisherin and the German war epic All Quiet on the Western Front.
All three were nominated for Best Picture alongside Avatar: The Way of Water, Elvis, The Fabelmans, Tár, Top Gun: Maverick, Triangle of Sadness and Women Talking.
Kiwi company Wētā FX worked on three films nominated for visual effects - The Batman, Avatar: The Way of Water and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
There was a big surprise in the Best Actress shortlist. The last-minute celebrity campaign to get Andrea Riseborough an Oscar for indie movie To Leslie proved successful, meaning she will compete against Cate Blanchett for Tár, Ana de Armas for Blonde, and Michelle Williams for The Fabelmans, in addition to Yeoh, for the prize.
The Best Actor category yielded no shocks, with nominees including Austin Butler (Elvis), Colin Farrell (The Banshees of Inisherin), Brendan Fraser (The Whale), Paul Mescal (Aftersun) and Bill Nighy (Living).
Brian Tyree Henry and Judd Hirsch were surprise entries for Best Supporting Actor for Causeway and The Fabelmans, respectively, and it seems the social media campaign to get Hsu recognised for her supporting turn in Everything Everywhere All at Once paid off.
The nominations were announced by Allison Williams and Riz Ahmed in Beverly Hills, California.
The 95th Academy Awards, hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, will take place at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood on March 12 (local time).
