Paramount

Total Nominations: 3

Star Attraction: Even without Russell Crowe and Joaquin Phoenix, moviegoers were mostly entertained by Gladiator II (currently streaming on Paramount+), which picked up a single nomination for Costume Design. Sadly, Supporting Actor contender Denzel Washington chewed all that scenery for nothing.

Don’t Overlook: September 5 had a sleepy theatrical roll-out, but its ticking clock recreation of the Israeli hostage crisis at the 1972 Munich Olympics from the perspective of the ABC News control room may play better at home when it arrives on the studio’s streamer. An upset win in the Original Screenplay category wouldn’t be out of left field.
