Nominees: 2017 Annie Awards

The International Animated Film Society have revealed the nominees for the 44th Annual Annie Awards, to be held on 04 February 2017 in Hollywood.

Disney predictably lead the field with summer hit Zootopia, which scooped eleven nominations, followed closely by Kubo and the Two Strings with 10. Already the Oscar favourites, these are now the two to beat, and the likes of Moana may want to campaign harder in the original song category from now on.

Most Nominated:
Zootopia – 11
Kubo and the Two Strings – 10
Moana – 6
The Red Turtle – 5
Kung Fu Panda 3 – 4
Trolls – 4
Finding Dory – 3
My Life As A Zucchini – 3
