The impressive total - which also includes best supporting actor and actress for Robert Downey Jr. and Emily Blunt, as well as best director for Christopher Nolan - is just one nomination short of the all-time record set by Titanic in 1998.
Last year's other smash hit movie - Barbie - was nominated for eight awards, but also fell victim to notable snubs from the Academy.
