Oscar Contenders From 2024 Thus Far

The excitement surrounding options for Oscar contenders for the first half of 2024 is seemingly quieter than usual. Yet many stars like Zendaya, Jesse Plemons, and Glen Powell are working to stay in the conversations. 

 

According to Variety, Dune: Part Two might become the seventh movie nominated for all seven technical categories. Inside Out 2 also has the potential for more categories than just the best-animated feature. Both of these films are in the spotlight because of high box office yields. 

 

2024 has also come with many one-off movies that have the potential to receive Oscar nominations. Kinds of Kindness by Yorgos Lanthimos has the potential to give Jesse Plemons a road for best actor or supporting actor, depending on how he campaigns. Netflix also has several animated adaptations that are potential for Oscar nominations. 

 

The Devil’s Bath by Veronika Franz and Severin Fiala is another potential entry as it has started what promises to be a great year for the horror genre. Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes is another potential nominee. The next installment of the franchise again stunned audiences with amazing visuals and in-depth storytelling. 

 

The first official best picture rankings will be posted on Monday, July 1 according to Variety reporting.
