Anne Hathaway and her "Rachel Getting Married" co-stars have been nominated for Best Ensemble Performance at the 18th Annual Gotham Independent Film Awards.

The brunette beauty - who looked stunning in a blue Zac Posen dress at the U.K. premiere of the movie in London's Leicester Square Monday night - is expected to attend the prestigious ceremony in New York on December 2.

Anne and her co-stars face competition from Scarlett Johansson, Penelope Cruz and Rebecca Hall - who have been nominated in the same category for their roles in Woody Allen's upcoming movie "Vicky Cristina Barcelona" - as well as the cast of movies "Ballast," "Synecdoche, New York" and "The Visitor."

Michelle Byrd, the Executive Director for non-profit film organization IFP who run the awards, said: "2008 has proven to be an extremely strong year for an immensely diverse group of filmmakers tackling a range of subjects and forms in new and dynamic ways."

Other categories include Best Feature, Breakthrough Actor, Breakthrough Director, Best Documentary and Best Film Not Playing at a Theater Near You.
