# List of accolades received by Jojo Rabbit

Jojo Rabbit is a 2019 satirical drama film written and directed by Taika Waititi, who adapted the screenplay from Christine Leunens's 2008 book Caging Skies. It stars Roman Griffin Davis as Johannes "Jojo" Betzler, a ten-year-old Hitler Youth member who finds out that his mother, Rosie (Scarlett Johansson), is hiding a Jewish girl, Elsa (Thomasin McKenzie), in their attic. He then begins to question his beliefs while dealing with the intervention of his imaginary friend, a buffoonish version of Adolf Hitler (Waititi). The film also features Sam Rockwell, Rebel Wilson, Stephen Merchant, and Alfie Allen.
Jojo Rabbit premiered at the 44th Toronto International Film Festival on September 8, 2019, where it won the People's Choice Award. The film was released theatrically by Fox Searchlight Pictures in the United States on October 18, opening in five theatres before expanding over the following weeks. It was released in New Zealand on October 24 and in most other territories in January and February 2020. Produced on a budget of $14 million, the film grossed $90.3 million worldwide during its original theatrical run, with a 2023 re-release in New Zealand bringing its total gross up to $93.6 million. The film received mixed reviews from critics. Some lauded the satire and humor, with praise also directed towards the writing and acting. Others criticised how the film handled the sensitivities of the subject matter, taking aim at the comedy, inconsistent tone, and lack of historical accuracy. On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 80% based on 430 reviews. Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 58 out of 100 from 57 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".
Jojo Rabbit garnered awards and nominations in various categories, with particular recognition for the screenplay, acting, and production elements. At the 92nd Academy Awards, the film received six nominations, including Best Picture. Waititi won the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay, making him the first person of indigenous descent to do so. He also won Best Adapted Screenplay at the 73rd British Academy Film Awards, where the film was nominated in six categories. Jojo Rabbit earned a further seven nominations at the 25th Critics' Choice Awards, where debutant Roman Griffin Davis won Best Young Performer. The film also received two nominations at the 77th Golden Globe Awards and won Best Compilation Soundtrack for Visual Media at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards. Both the American Film Institute and the National Board of Review named Jojo Rabbit one of the Top Ten Films of 2019.
