"Sinners" broke a longstanding Oscars record with 16 nominations, with Paul Thomas Anderson's "One Battle After Another" not far behind with 13 nods.
Ryan Coogler’s genre-spanning vampire epic “Sinners” made history at the nominations for the 2026 Oscars on Thursday, leading all films with 16 nominations.
Voters for the 98th Academy Awards pushed “Sinners” into uncharted territory with its 16 nods, besting the previous record of 14 nominations held by “All About Eve,” “Titanic,” and “La La Land.”
AMPAS voters honored “Sinners” in the marquee categories of Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay. The film also received acting nods for Michael B. Jordan (Best Actor), Wunmi Mosaku (Best Supporting Actress), and Delroy Lindo (Best Supporting Actor), and a nomination for Best Casting, a new category introduced this year.
