Another standout year for Irish talent in film, Cillian Murphy, Barry Keoghan, Paul Mescal and Medb Riordan will represent Ireland at this year's awards.
The 2024 The British Academy Film Awards (BAFTAs) have officially announced the nominees for the standouts in film last year.
Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer co-leads with 13 nominations, including Best Film, Best Director, Best Actor for Cillian Murphy and Best Supporting nods for Emily Blunt and Robert Downey Jr.
Tied with Oppenheimer, Yorgos Lanthimos’ Poor Things also received 13 nominations, namely Best Film and Best Actress for Emma Stone.

For all the achievements of Oppenheimer and Poor Things, a main takeaway from the nominations, announced via livestream, is the exclusion of Greta Gerwig’s box-office hit Barbie across several categories. The film entered longlisted nominations tied with Oppenheimer and Killers of the Flower Moon with 15 nods apiece.
Barbie came out with five nominations, including a Best Actress nod for Margot Robbie and Best Supporting Actor for Ryan Gosling.
Another notable year for Irish talent, Cillian Murphy and Barry Keoghan are first-time nominees for Best Actor in a Leading Role. Keoghan won the BAFTA for Best Supporting Actor last year for his role as Dominic in Martin McDonagh's The Banshees of Inisherin. A second, consecutive Irish win for the Best Supporting Actor category is well within reach with Paul Mescal nominated for his role in All of Us Strangers.
Irish producer Medb Riordan is nominated for Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer along with English filmmakers Savanah Leaf and Shirley O'Connor.
The BAFTA Film Awards ceremony will take place on Sunday, 18 February at London’s Royal Festival Hall, with Doctor Who star David Tennant slated to host.
