MTV Movie & TV Awards: 'Black Panther,' 'Stranger Things' Top Nominations

Tiffany Haddish is set to host the June 18 show.

Black Panther and Stranger Things top the list of nominees for the 2018 MTV Movie & TV Awards, it was announced Thursday.

Black Panther earned a total of seven nominations, including for best movie and two mentions for star Chadwick Boseman (best performance in a movie and best hero). Also vying in the best movie category alongside Black Panther are Avengers: Infinity War, Girls Trip, It and Wonder Woman.

Stranger Things also scored a total of seven noms, including for best show and best performance in a show for Millie Bobby Brown, who last year received an Emmy nom for her role as Eleven. Game of Thrones, 13 Reasons Why, Grown-ish and Riverdale also are competing for best show.

Other top nominees in the film categories include It and Girls Trip with four mentions and Avengers: Infinity War, Wonder Woman and Star Wars: The Last Jedi with three apiece. Disney was the top studio with a total of 15 noms.

On the TV side, shows earning multiple noms include Riverdale with four and Game of Thrones with three. Netflix leads all TV networks and streamers with 10 total noms.

For a second consecutive year, the categories will be gender-neutral, with both men and women competing alongside each other. For best TV performance, Brown is nominated alongside Darren Criss (The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story), Katherine Langford (13 Reasons Why), Issa Rae (Insecure) and Maisie Williams (Game of Thrones). On the film side, Boseman will compete for best movie performance along with Oscar winner Timothée Chalamet (Call Me by Your Name), Ansel Elgort (Baby Driver), Daisy Ridley (Star Wars: The Last Jedi) and Oscar nominee Saoirse Ronan (Lady Bird).

MTV also unveiled nominees in a slew of other categories, including best villain, onscreen team, comedic performance, fight, reality series/franchise, scene stealer and, of course, best kiss, one of the more quirky staples of the show. Additional categories and honors will be announced at a later date.

Girls Trip breakout Tiffany Haddish, who will host the awards show, earned two noms, for best comedic performance and scene stealer.

The awards are voted on by fans, with voting underway at MTVAwards.MTV.com.

The 2018 MTV Movie & TV Awards will air Monday, June 18, at 9 p.m. ET/PT from the Barker Hangar in Los Angeles.
