The FavouriteNominations for the 24thAnnual Critics’ Choice Awards, announced today, are putting awards season in clear focus. Critics clearly love royal period drama “The Favourite,” which leads all films this year with 14 nominations, followed by “Black Panther” with 12 nominations.

Other films garnering much love are “First Man” with ten nominations and “Mary Poppins Returns,” “A Star Is Born,” and “Vice” with nine nominations each.  “Roma” earned eight nominations while “Green Book” scored seven.

There are a number of multiple award nominees, led by Alfonso Cuarón who could take home four awards for his work on “Roma” including Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Cinematography and Best Editing.

Bradley Cooper is nominated for his first turn as director for “A Star Is Born” along with nods for Best Actor and Best Adapted Screenplay.  In the latter two categories, Cooper is up against Spike Lee for “BlacKkKlansman.”

Adam McKay’s work on “Vice” earned him nominations for both Best Director and Best Original Screenplay.  Several actors have been recognized in multiple categories this year including Christian Bale for “Vice,” Emily Blunt for “Mary Poppins Returns,” Olivia Colman for “The Favourite,” and newcomer Elsie Fisher for “Eighth Grade.”  Costume Designer Sandy Powell is nominated for her creations for “The Favourite” and “Mary Poppins Returns.”

Amy Adams stands out as a nominee in both film and television for her roles in “Vice” and “Sharp Objects,” respectively.

Julia Garner is nominated for her roles in both “Dirty John” and “Ozark.”

The Americans Season 6-fx

HBO and Netflix lead the networks with 20 nominations each, followed by FX with 16, Amazon with 12 and NBC with 11.  Topping the list of nominated series are “The Americans” (FX), “The Assassination Of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story” (FX), and “Escape at Dannemora” (Showtime) with five each.

Members of the Broadcast Film Critics Association (BFCA) and the Broadcast Television Journalists Association (BTJA) vote on the winners, who will be revealed at the star-studded Critics’ Choice Awards gala, broadcast live on The CW Network on Sunday, January 13, 2019 from 7:00 – 10:00 pm ET (delayed PT).

“The films of 2018 have been some of the most culturally impactful in recent history,” said BFCA President Joey Berlin.  “They’ve portrayed stories from every walk of life, from all different perspectives, and have touched audiences and inspired conversations that we will continue to have for years to come.  We are so excited to have the opportunity to celebrate all of them, and the people who made them, on January 13 on The CW!”

“The extraordinary wealth of talent and growing number of platforms makes narrowing down each television category an unenviable task,” said BTJA President Ed Martin.  “Despite that, we are thrilled with this year’s nominees and look forward to recognizing their outstanding achievements.”
