Todd Phillips’ much-debated supervillain origin story and R-rated box-office smash “Joker” topped all films with 11 Academy Awards nominations on Monday.
“The Irishman,” “Once Upon a Time ... in Hollywood” and “1917 ” trail close behind with 10 nominations apiece.
For the 87th time, the academy selected all-male directing nominees.
The nominations had some surprises, with Jennifer Lopez and Beyonce missing out on their first Oscar nominations.
The 92nd Academy Awards will be held on on Feb. 9 in Los Angeles and for the second year in a row will go without a host.
