Top 98th Academy Award Nominees

Oscar history was made this year as Ryan Coogler’s vampire gothic horror epic Sinners earned 16 Academy Award nominations, the most ever for a single film. The previous record of 14 nominations was shared by All About Eve, Titanic and La La Land.

Close behind was another awards-season powerhouse, Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Battle After Another, which secured 13 nominations. Meanwhile, Marty Supreme, Frankenstein and Sentimental Value followed closely with nine nominations each.

This year also marked a major milestone for performers, with 11 actors receiving their first-ever Oscar nominations, including Michael B. Jordan, Stellan Skarsgård, Rose Byrne and Jacob Elordi.

Timothée Chalamet made Academy Awards history as well, becoming the youngest actor ever to receive three Best Actor nominations, for Call Me by Your Name (2018), A Complete Unknown (2025) and now Marty Supreme. The last actor to achieve this feat by age 30 was Marlon Brando in 1954.

One of the most notable omissions from this year’s Oscar nominations was Wicked: For Good. The first film, Wicked, earned 10 nominations at the 97th Academy Awards, making the sequel’s absence a surprising snub for many awards watchers. On the other side of the conversation, many have expressed surprise that F1did receive a Best Picture nomination. 

And now, here’s a look at the full list of 2026 Oscar nominees.
