'Oppenheimer' is leading the 2024 Oscar nominations with 13 nods.
The shortlist for the 96th Academy Awards was announced on Tuesday and the World War II drama - which stars Cillian Murphy in the title role of the theoretical physicist - is leading the way.
The film is up for Best Picture, whilst filmmaker Christopher Nolan is up for Best Director and former 'Peaky Blinders' star Murphy is up for Actor in a Leading Role.
Murphy will face competition from Bradley Cooper for his role in 'Maestro', Colman Domingo for 'Rustin', Paul Giamatti for 'The Holdovers' and Jeffrey Wright for 'American Fiction', whilst those up for Actress in a Leading Role include Lily Gladstone for 'Killers of the Flower Moon', Annette Bening for 'Nyad, Sandra Hüller for 'Anatomy of a Fall' and Carey Mulligan for 'Maestro'.
Coming up behind with 11 nominations is the comedy 'Poor Things' - which stars Emma Stone as a woman brought back to life by an unorthodox scientist, whilst 'The Holdovers', 'Killers of the Flower Moon' and 'Barbie' are also among the top nominees.
Over the summer, 'Oppenheimer' went head-to-head with Greta Gerwig's hit comedy based on the iconic Mattel doll - which eventually earned almost $1.5-billion at the box office whilst 'Oppenheimer' brought in $953.8-million - and the two will both go up against each other once again for the title of Best Picture.
Other nominees for the coveted accolade include 'American Fiction', 'Anatomy of a Fall', 'The Holdovers', 'Maestro' 'Past Lives', and 'The Zone of Interest'.
'Barbie' received a total of eight nods, including Ryan Gosling for Best Actor in a Supporting Role whilst his character Ken's song 'I'm Just Ken' is up for Best Original Song, as is the Billie Eilish track 'What Was I Made For?' which appears in the closing section of the film.
The 96th Academy Awards will take place on March 10, 2024.
