“The Brutalist” and “Wicked” secured 10 nominations apiece in a year with a wide-open best picture race. Acting nominees include Demi Moore, Cynthia Erivo, Adrien Brody and Timothée Chalamet.

The “Lion King” prequel arrived to weak ticket sales last month, but moviegoers have since embraced it, pushing global box office returns toward $700 million.
