With a new name and new look, MTV Movie and TV Awards, for the first time ever will recognize TV series alongside feature films.

And, the nominations for this year's show are finally out.

Jordan Peele's directorial debut 'Get Out' leads with six nominations, including Movie of the Year. 'Beauty and the Beast' follows with four nominations, including Best Actor in a Movie nomination for Emma Watson.

On the TV side, last year's phenomenon 'Stranger Things' nabbed four nominations, including Best Actor in Show for Millie Bobby Brown, while HBO's 'Game of Thrones' followed closely with three nominations, including Show of the Year nomination.

 

This year, the actor and actress categories have been combined into non-gendered fields for movies and TV shows.
