Bella Ramsey, Austin Butler, and Courteney Cox are among the first-time nominees.
A celebration of entertainment, action, drama, horror, and romance is just around the corner thanks to the upcoming 2023 MTV Movie & TV Awards. The full list of nominees via Deadline has Top Gun: Maverick leading the film category with six nominations, while The Last of Us and Stranger Things lead the way with six nominations in scripted television categories. For the second year running, the MTV Movie & TV Awards will combine scripted and unscripted television into one glorious event and a whole host of unscripted shows are fighting for supremacy in a tightly contested battleground. Jersey Shore Family Vacation, RuPaul’s Drag Race, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and Vanderpump Rules.
Leading the way in the cinematic categories is the aforementioned Top Gun: Maverick, one of the highest-grossing films in 2022 and a nominee for Best Picture at the 2023 Oscars. Its MTV nominations come in Best Movie, Best Performance in a Movie (Tom Cruise), Best Hero (Cruise), Best Song (for Lady Gaga's power ballad 'Hold My Hand'), and two further nominations in the Best Duo category (for Cruise and Miles Teller). In 2022, the top awards of Best Movie and Best Show went out to Spider-Man: No Way Home and HBO’s Euphoria respectively, and this year's awards include nominees from a plethora of genres in each major category. In Best Movie, Top Gun: Maverick is rubbing shoulders with fellow blockbuster Avatar: The Way of Water, horrors such as Scream VI, and biopics like Elvis. In Best Show, the leading The Last of Us and Stranger Things will compete with the likes of HBO's scandalous drama The White Lotus and Netflix hits such as Wednesday.
The 2023 MTV Movie & TV Awards has plenty of originality to keep audiences intrigued this year, thanks to two brand-new categories, Best Reality On-Screen Team and Best Kick-Ass Cast. Kick-Ass Cast will be celebrating some of the greatest ensembles to grace cinema and television screens in the past year, including nominees Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and Outer Banks. As well as this, this year's nominees list is packed to the brim with first-timers, from Austin Butler to Bella Ramsey and Bad Bunny to Courtney Cox. Part of the attraction of the MTV Movie & TV Awards experience is that there are countless categories that celebrate the wonders of storytelling. Fight scenes, romantic kisses, dastardly villains and characters in horror-filled distress are all part of what makes cinematic and televisual stories special for audiences, and these type of moments and more have their own categories to celebrate, from Best Kiss to Most Frightened Performance.
