The 96th annual Academy Awards is gearing up to be a highly competitive event, with a slew of outstanding films vying for top honors. Oppenheimer leads the pack with an impressive 13 Oscar nominations, followed closely by Poor Things with 11 nods and Barbie with eight mentions.
Despite some expected nominations, there have been notable snubs that have left fans and industry insiders surprised. Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig, the coproducers of Barbie, were notably absent from the Best Actress and Best Director categories, respectively, despite the film's massive success at the box office.
