    After a record breaking weekend at the global box office, Universal Pictures’ Wicked has now become the most nominated film by the HCA in the organization’s eight year history. The film received 19 nominations including Best Picture, Best Actress for Cynthia Erivo, Best Supporting Actress for Ariana Grande, and Best Director for Jon M. Chu.

    Coming in second place, with a total of 15 nominations, was Warner Bros. Dune: Part Two. The Denis Villeneuve sequel nominations included Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Cast Ensemble, amongst many others categories.

    Netflix’s Emilia Pérez came in third with 11 nominations. Amongst the nominations are Best Picture, Best Actress for Karla Sofía Gascón, dual Best Supporting Actress nominations for Selena Gomez and Zoe Saldana and Best Cast Ensemble, which the film won at the Cannes Film Festival earlier this year.

    Mubi’s body horror comedy The Substance also received a lot of attention from the HCA, scoring a total of 10 nominations, including Best Picture, Best Actress for Demi Moore, Best Supporting Actress for Margaret Qualley, and Best Director for Coralie Fargeat.
