With award season upon us, fans and critics have been placing their bets on the buzziest accolades of all: the Oscars.
The wait is finally over. The 97th Academy Awards will take place on Sunday, March 2 — and the full list of Oscar nominations has finally been announced.
Unsurprisingly, “Conclave,” “A Complete Unknown” and “The Wild Robot” all managed to snag a few Oscar nominations.
But how did “Wicked,” one of 2024’s most wildly successful films, fare?
Here are all the Oscars that “Wicked” has been nominated for.
How many Oscars is ‘Wicked’ nominated for?
“Wicked” has been nominated for 10 Oscars total — just three behind “Emilia Pérez,” one of this award season’s most-nominated movies.
“Wicked” is tied with “The Brutalist,” which also has 10 Oscar nominations, according to NPR.
Here are all the Oscars “Wicked” has been nominated for:
- Best picture

- Best performance by an actress in a supporting role, Ariana Grande
- Achievement in costume design

What awards has ‘Wicked’ won so far?
Despite quite a few nominations, “Wicked” has walked away with few awards this year.
At the Golden Globes, “Wicked” snagged four nominations — including best musical or comedy motion picture — but only won the Golden Globe for cinematic and box office achievement, as the Deseret News previously reported.
Upon receiving the award, director Jon M. Chu said, “Maybe we’re a little bit Elphaba inside of us.”
He continued, “Maybe we have that courage and strength to not give up, but to rise up and take the (path) off the Yellow Brick Road and maybe discover we can fly.”
