‘WandaVision’ and ‘Borat Subsequent Moviefilm’ Lead MTV Movie & TV Awards Nominations

Disney+’s “WandaVision” led all nominated TV shows for the 2021 MTV Movie & TV Awards with five nods, while “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm” led all film nominees with three.

The full list of nominees for this year’s MTV Movie & TV Awards was unveiled Monday, including a new set of “Unscripted” categories that recognize reality television. “RuPaul’s Drag Race” leads that pack with four nominations.

“WandaVision” was nominated for Best Show alongside “Bridgerton,” “Cobra Kai,” “Emily in Paris” and “The Boys,” while “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm” was nominated for Best Movie alongside “Judas and the Black Messiah,” “Promising Young Woman,” “Soul” and “To All the Boys: Always and Forever.”

The Disney+ and Marvel show also scored nominations in Best Performance in a Show from Elizabeth Olsen, Best Hero for Teyonah Parris, Best Villain for Kathryn Hahn and Best Fight.

In other notable nominations, Chadwick Boseman received a posthumous nod for his work in “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom,” and first-time nominees included Carey Mulligan, Anthony Mackie, Anya Taylor-Joy, Zendaya, Michaela Coel and Eric Andre.

As previously announced, this year’s MTV Movie & TV Awards will take place across two nights, with the Unscripted portion of the awards taking place on the second night. The expanded show comes after the COVID-19 pandemic canceled last year’s festivities, which led to “MTV Movie & TV Awards: Greatest of All Time,” a 90-minute special that paid homage to some of the best movie and TV moments dating back to the 1980s.

Hosts, honorees, performers, presenters and additional details for both the MTV Movie & TV Awards and the Unscripted show will be announced at a later date.

Fans can vote between now and April 30 across all 25 categories by visiting vote.mtv.com.

The 2021 MTV Movie & TV Awards telecast will air live on Sunday, May 16 from the Palladium in Los Angeles at 9 p.m. ET/PT.  Executive producers for both the 2021 MTV Movie & TV Awards and the Movie & TV Awards: UNSCRIPTED are MTV’s Bruce Gillmer, Wendy Plaut and Vanessa Whitewolf and Den Of Thieves’ Jesse Ignjatovic and Barb Bialkowski. Jackie Barba and Alicia Portugal are executives in charge of production, and Lisa Lauricella serves as the music talent executive for both events.
