The 2026 Oscars had it all, glory, surprises, and more than a few faces that seemed to say, "Wait, what just happened?" Although Sinners came in as the most nominated film of the night, it ultimately did not become the ceremony's undisputed winner.
That title went to One Battle After Another, which ended up taking home six awards, including Best Picture and Best Director for Paul Thomas Anderson. Sinners, for its part, finished with four statuettes, including Best Actor for Michael B. Jordan, who prevailed in one of the night's most talked-about categories.
