One Battle After Another secured nominations for Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy, Best Score, Best Director, and several acting categories. The film stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Benicio Del Toro in lead roles and has been widely praised for its sharp writing and strong ensemble performances.
The nomination sweep positions the film as the leading contender heading into the awards.
