It became the first film to receive seven acting nominations, the first to receive nominations in all five acting categories and the third film to receive three acting nominations in a single category, namely [Best Supporting Actress](/source/Prix_Iris_for_Best_Supporting_Actress). It received nominations in all eligible categories except [Prix Michel-Côté](/source/Prix_Michel-C%C3%B4t%C3%A9) which is determined by box-office results.[1] Despite winning a leading eight awards during the ceremony, including [Best Film](/source/Prix_Iris_for_Best_Film) and [Best Screenplay](/source/Prix_Iris_for_Best_Screenplay), it failed to win any of its acting nominations.

*[The Nature of Love](/source/The_Nature_of_Love) (Simple comme Sylvain)* received fourteen nominations and won three awards, including [Best Director](/source/Prix_Iris_for_Best_Director). *[1995](/source/1995_(film))* received eleven nominations, including [Jean-Carl Boucher](/source/Jean-Carl_Boucher)'s and [Sandrine Bisson](/source/Sandrine_Bisson)'s fourth nomination for playing the same character, following their nominations for *[1981](/source/1981_(film))*, *[1987](/source/1987_(film))* and *[1991](/source/1991_(film))*. Sandrine Bisson became the first actress to win [Best Supporting Actress](/source/Prix_Iris_for_Best_Supporting_Actress) thrice.

*[Richelieu](/source/Richelieu_(2023_film))* received ten nominations and won three acting awards: [Best Supporting Actor](/source/Prix_Iris_for_Best_Supporting_Actor) for [Marc-André Grondin](/source/Marc-Andr%C3%A9_Grondin) while [Ariane Castellanos](/source/Ariane_Castellanos) won both [Revelation of the Year](/source/Prix_Iris_for_Revelation_of_the_Year) and [Best Actress](/source/Prix_Iris_for_Best_Actress). She became the second person to win two acting awards during the same ceremony, following [Hélène Florent](/source/H%C3%A9l%C3%A8ne_Florent)'s two awards during the 2022 ceremony. *[Solo](/source/Solo_(2023_film))* also received ten nominations and won three awards, including [Best Actor](/source/Prix_Iris_for_Best_Actor) for [Théodore Pellerin](/source/Th%C3%A9odore_Pellerin), who became the first actor to win in the Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor and Revelation of the Year categories. Coincidentally, all his winning performances were directed by [Sophie Dupuis](/source/Sophie_Dupuis).

For his performances in both *Humanist Vampire Seeking Consenting Suicidal Person* and *The Nature of Love*, [Steve Laplante](/source/Steve_Laplante) became the first actor to receive two nominations in the same acting category, namely [Best Supporting Actor](/source/Prix_Iris_for_Best_Supporting_Actor). For his performances in both *[The Successor](/source/The_Successor_(2023_film)) (Le successeur)* and *[Richelieu](/source/Richelieu_(2023_film))*, [Marc-André Grondin](/source/Marc-Andr%C3%A9_Grondin) became the ninth performer and sixth actor to receive nominations for both [Best Actor](/source/Prix_Iris_for_Best_Actor) and [Best Supporting Actor](/source/Prix_Iris_for_Best_Supporting_Actor) during the same ceremony.

For the first time since the [Revelation of the Year](/source/Prix_Iris_for_Revelation_of_the_Year) category was introduced, two actors — [Félix-Antoine Bénard](/source/F%C3%A9lix-Antoine_B%C3%A9nard) in *Humanist Vampire Seeking Consenting Suicidal Person* and [Ariane Castellanos](/source/Ariane_Castellanos) in *Richelieu* — received dual nominations for both that category and the lead acting categories. Castellanos also received a [Best Casting](/source/Prix_Iris_for_Best_Casting) nomination for *Richelieu*, making her the first person to receive nominations for both acting and casting in the same movie.

Sound mixer [Luc Boudrias](/source/Luc_Boudrias) became only the third person, following haistylist Martin Lapointe and producer Marc Bertrand, to receive four nominations in a single category, namely [Best Sound](/source/Prix_Iris_for_Best_Sound). Marie-Claude Lafontaine became the first person to win four consecutive awards, all in the [Best Visual Effects](/source/Prix_Iris_for_Best_Visual_Effects) category.
