Oscar nominees announced: See the full list for each category

While some films were almost guaranteed to be nominated, there were some noteworthy snubs. Here's a full list of the Academy Award nominees.

WASHINGTON — It's Oscars season! Christopher Nolan's epic about the creator of the atomic bomb, "Oppenheimer," leads the nominees with 13. "Barbie," released on the same day as part of the cultural phenomenon known as Barbenheimer, nabbed eight noms. 

In total there are four contenders at the top of the field for the year, highlighting a myriad of Hollywood talent. And in a noteworthy change from previous years, all four films had a theatrical release and saved streaming for later, marking a comeback for movies shown in theaters.

Nolan’s three-hour opus, viewed as the best picture frontrunner, received nods for best picture; Nolan’s direction; acting nominations for Cillian Murphy, Robert Downey Jr. and Emily Blunt; and multiple honors for the craft of Nolan’s J. Robert Oppenheimer drama.

Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie” wasn’t far behind with eight nominations, including nods for best picture; Ryan Gosling for best supporting actor; and two best-song candidates in “What Was I Made For” and “I’m Just Ken.” But Gerwig was surprisingly left out of the best director field.

Both Martin Scorsese’s Osage epic “Killers of the Flower Moon” and Yorgos Lanthimos’ Frankenstein riff “Poor Things” were also widely celebrated. “Poor Things” landed 11 nods, while “Killers of the Moon” was nominated for 10 Oscars.
