2026 Oscars: Full Winners List Announced Live from Hollywood Ceremony
The 2026 Oscars ceremony took place tonight at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, concluding this year's awards season with a star-studded event. Comedian Conan O'Brien returned as host for his second consecutive year, following a widely praised debut in 2025. This year's Oscars introduced a new competitive category, Best Casting, expanding the total number of awards presented to 24, the first addition in over two decades to recognise the creative contributions of casting directors.
Record-Breaking Nominations and Key Contenders
The nominations, announced earlier by Danielle Brooks and Lewis Pullman on 'Good Morning America', recognised films released in 2025, spanning prestige dramas, studio blockbusters, and international titles. Ryan Coogler's vampire horror film Sinners, starring Michael B. Jordan in a dual role as twins, led the pack with a historic 16 nominations, more than any film in Oscars history. Close behind was Paul Thomas Anderson's caper One Battle After Another, featuring Leonardo DiCaprio, with 13 nominations.
Other notable nominees included Guillermo del Toro's adaptation of Frankenstein and Josh Safdie's ping pong drama Marty Supreme, both earning nine nominations each. Chloé Zhao's Shakespeare-inspired drama Hamnet received eight nominations. A major surprise was Brad Pitt's F1 blockbuster securing a Best Picture nomination, highlighting the diverse range of films in contention.
