Netflix's 'Emilia Pérez,' a Spanish-language narco-musical about trans identity, leads the Oscar nominations with 13 nods, including best picture and a historic first-ever nomination for an openly trans actor, Karla Sofía Gascón. The nominations come amid devastating wildfires in Los Angeles, prompting the Academy to postpone the announcement and vowing to use the ceremony to celebrate resilience and unity.

Netflix, despite its starring role in Hollywood, has never won best picture. Many of its top contenders have previously racked up large numbers of nominations but gone home with only a handful of trophies. “The Brutalist,” Brady Corbet’s postwar epic filmed in VistaVision, also came away with a commanding 10 nominations, including best picture, best director and nominations for actor Adrien Brody, Guy Pearce and Felicity Jones.
One of 2024’s most audacious films, “The Apprentice ” landed two nominations, for Sebastian Stan and Jeremy Strong. The film dramatizes the formative years of President Donald Trump' s emergence in New York real estate under the tutelage of attorney Roy Cohn. Trump has called those involved with the film “human scum.”
