Several December films, including West Side Story, Nightmare Alley and Don’t Look Up were not screened in time and are not represented in today’s nominations.

In the TV categories, Big Sky, Nine Perfect Strangers, and Succession are among the multiple category drama nominees, while The Kominsky Method, Only Murders in the Building, and Ted Lasso are among the multiple category comedy nominees.

The International Press Academy selects Satellite Awards nominees from domestic and international submissions for 36 categories: 23 Motion Picture and 13 Television. Nominations are derived from advance screenings at film festivals worldwide (i.e. BAFTA, Cannes, Sundance, Telluride, TIFF), as well as consideration screeners sent to individual journalists and/or sanctioned links as available by the deadline.
