Kenneth Branagh’s Belfast and Steven Spielberg’s West Side Story lead the list of nomination revealed Monday for the 27th annual Critics Choice Awards with 11 each. They are followed closely by Dune and The Power of the Dog, which both racked up 10 apiece. All four are among Best Picture nominees that also include Licorice Pizza and Nightmare Alley with eight nominations each, King Richard and Don’t Look Up with six noms, CODA with four, and tick, tick…BOOM! with two including a Best Actor nod for its star Andrew Garfield.
“We are so proud to be honoring this amazing list of films and the incredibly talented people who made them during this extremely challenging time,” said Critics Choice Association CEO Joey Berlin. “All eyes are going to be on the Fairmont Century Plaza red carpet and ballroom on January 9th, when the biggest stars in movies and television will be gathered to celebrate the best of the best in entertainment this past year. In the safest possible environment, it will mark the return of the kind of glitz and glamor we haven’t been able to enjoy in far too long.”
In addition to Garfield, the list of lead actor nominees includes Nicolas Cage for Pig, Benedict Cumberbatch for The Power of the Dog, Peter Dinklage for Cyrano, Will Smith for King Richard and Denzel Washington for The Tragedy of Macbeth. Up for Lead Actress are Jessica Chastain in The Eyes of Tammy Faye, Olivia Colman in The Lost Daughter, Lady Gaga in House of Gucci, Alana Haim in Licorice Pizza, Nicole Kidman in Being the Ricardos and Kristen Stewart in Spencer.
Nominees for Best Director are Branagh, Spielberg, Paul Thomas Anderson for Licorice Pizza, Jane Campion for The Power of the Dog, Guillermo del Toro for Nightmare Alley and Denis Villeneuve for Dune.
The Critics Choice Awards nominations are selected from a membership of over 500 have often proved to be a harbinger of what is to come for the Oscars.
As announced last week, HBO’s Succession leads the Critics Choice Awards TV nominations, collecting nods in eight categories. In addition to Best Drama Series the show racked up a slew of acting nominations including nods for both Brian Cox and Jeremy Strong for Best Actor in a Drama Series, while Nicholas Braun, Kieran Culkin and Matthew Macfadyen all earned nominations for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series, and J. Smith-Cameron and Sarah Snook are up for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series. Mare of Easttown (HBO) and Evil (Paramount+) also scored multiple series nominations, earning five each.
Winners in all categories be revealed at the Critics Choice Awards gala, hosted by Taye Diggs and Nicole Byer and broadcast live on The CW and TBS on Sunday, January 9 from 7-10 p.m. ET (delayed PT – check local listings). (Full disclosure: I am a member of the Critics Choice Association and its President of Film, though not on the board.)
As Deadline previously reported this morning, the embattled Hollywood Foreign Press Association also revealed its Golden Globe nominations in motion pictures and television and also plans to announce winners January 9, though in what form is still being formulated since their traditional broadcast home NBC won’t telecast the ceremony show this year.
