Academy Reveals 323 Films Eligible for Oscars, Including Golden Globe Winners

A total of 323 feature films are eligible for consideration for the 2024 Academy Awards, including 207 that met the criteria for consideration for best picture, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced Monday.

The announcement comes on the heels of Sunday night’s Golden Globe Awards, which unofficially kicked off the Hollywood awards season. The films “Emilia Pérez” and “The Brutalist” took home the top movie prizes, winning for best motion picture musical/comedy and drama, respectively.

Those films are both among those declared eligible for the Academy Awards.

To be eligible in general categories for the 97th Academy Awards, feature films must have opened in a commercial motion picture theater in at least one of six U.S. metropolitan areas — Los Angeles County; the city of New York; the Bay Area; Chicago, Illinois; Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas; and Atlanta, Georgia, between Jan. 1 and Dec. 31 of 2024, and run for at least seven consecutive days in the same venue. The films must be more than 40 minutes long.

Qualifying for the best picture category, films must be eligible for the general categories and producers must submit an Academy Representation and Inclusion Standards form. They also must complete an expanded theatrical release standard, including a run of at least seven days in 10 of the top 50 U.S. markets, no later than 45 days after their initial release in 2024.

Academy members will vote on nominations Wednesday through Sunday. Nominations will be announced Jan. 17.

The Academy Awards will be presented March 2 at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.
