Oppenheimer leads the nominations for this year’s Oscars – with big nods also for box office rival Barbie.

Christopher Nolan’s epic exploring the true story of the first atomic bomb is up for 13 Oscars, including best director and best picture, while Greta Gerwig’s feminist take on Barbie has eight nods, including best picture.

The two polar opposite films sparked the Barbenheimer phenomenon when they were both released on the same day in July last year, with many viewers watching them both on the same day. While both were huge hits it was Barbie that won the box office battle, going on to bring in more than $1bn.

Elsewhere, Killers Of The Flower Moon, Poor Things and Maestro are also up for best picture, while Emma Stone, Robert De Niro, Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt are among those shortlisted for acting prizes.
