‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’ Leads Critics Choice Awards with 14 Nominations

The 600-member Critics Choice Association (CCA) revealed the film category nominees for the 28th Annual Critics Choice Awards, which will be held at the Critics Choice Awards gala, broadcast live on The CW from the Fairmont Century Plaza in Los Angeles on Sunday, January 15, 2023 (at 7:00 p.m. ET). As the largest film critic association in North America, the CCAs are often predictive of the Oscars.

Due to a tied vote, the CCAs voted in 11 Best Picture candidates (the Oscars will have 10) and 10 directors (the Oscars will have five). The organization also expanded the acting categories to six total slots, including ensemble.

“Everything Everywhere All at Once” (A24) led the film contenders with 14 nominations overall: Best Picture, Best Comedy, and five acting nominations including Acting Ensemble. Filmmakers Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, AKA Daniels, earned nods in both Best Director and Best Original Screenplay; nominated in the craft categories were Production Design, Editing, Costume Design, Hair and Makeup, and Visual Effects.

“The Fabelmans” (Universal) followed with 11 nods, including CCA perennial Steven Spielberg for Best Director, plus a nod for Best Original Screenplay alongside Tony Kushner. In addition to receiving a Best Acting Ensemble nomination, Michelle Williams earned a Best Actress nomination, Paul Dano and Judd Hirsch landed Supporting Actor slots, and Gabriel LaBelle scored Best Young Actor/Actress. Janusz Kaminski earned a nod for Best Cinematography, while Rick Carter and Karen O’Hara are up for Best Production Design, and John Williams could take home the trophy for Best Score.

The list of Best Picture contenders also includes “Babylon” (Paramount) and “The Banshees of Inisherin” (Searchlight), which garnered ten and nine nominations respectively, along with “Elvis” (Warner Bros.) and “Tár” (Focus Features), which collected seven nominations each. Rounding out the Best Picture nominees are “Avatar: The Way of Water” (Disney), “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery” (Netflix), “Top Gun: Maverick” (Paramount), and “Women Talking” (UAR), with six total nominations, and “RRR” (Sarigama Cinemas and Raftar Creations) with five.

“Top Gun: Maverick”

Paramount Pictures

Missing from the Best Picture list are Oscar hopefuls “Living” (Sony Pictures Classics), which scored nods for Bill Nighy for Best Actor and Kazuo Ishiguro for Best Adapted Screenplay; “The Woman King” (Sony), which landed nods for Viola Davis for Best Actress, Best Acting Ensemble, Costume Design, and Best Director for Gina Prince-Bythewood; Marvel’s “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” (Disney), which scored four craft nods, a Best Song nomination, and Best Supporting Actress for Angela Bassett; and New York Times drama “She Said” (Universal), which landed one nomination for Adapted Screenplay.

Missing from the Supporting Actress lineup was “Women Talking” star Claire Foy, while Jessie Buckley took a slot. The directors list of 10 omitted “Glass Onion” director Rian Johnson, who did land an Adapted Screenplay nod. Netflix’s awards hopes are pinned on “Glass Onion” as well as “Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio,” which is likely to win the animation category; Globe nominees Eddie Redmayne (“The Good Nurse”) and Ana de Armas (“Blonde”) did not turn up at the CCAs.

As previously announced, “Abbott Elementary” leads the TV contenders for the 28th annual Critics Choice Awards, collecting nods in six categories. Beloved Hollywood veteran Jeff Bridges will accept the Critics Choice Lifetime Achievement Award at this year’s show.
