Sony’s A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood and Little Women and Netflix’s Marriage Story snagged five noms each, with Lionsgate’s Bombshell netting four. All of the above will vie in the marquee Best Picture/Best Movie for Grownups category, along with A24’s The Farewell, which scored three noms overall.

The AARP also set Tony Danza to host the January 11 ceremony at the Beverly Wilshire in Beverly Hills. Earlier this month, the group set Annette Bening to receive its AARP Movies for Grownups Career Achievement Award.
