Oscar season has officially begun. The Oscar 2026 nominations have been revealed, with the movies set to battle for a prestigious gold trophy announced in a live-streamed ceremony in sunny California.
This year’s crop of frontrunners looks particularly strong. Paul Thomas Anderson’s acclaimed “One Battle After Another” and fan-favorite horror-thriller “Sinners” have received the most nods. But they’ll face competition from the likes of “Hamnet,” “Marty Supreme,” “Sentimental Value,” and Netflix’s “Train Dreams.” And several major A-list stars feature in the quartet of acting categories, including Leonardo DiCaprio, Timothée Chalamet, Michael B. Jordan, Emma Stone, Jessie Buckley and Rose Byrne.
