Netflix scores Oscar nominations for Frankenstein and KPop Demon Hunters

The nominees for the 2026 Academy Awards were just announced and Ryan Coogler's vampire-adjacent period drama Sinners received a record-breaking 16 nominations. That's the highest number of Oscar nominations for a single film in the history of the awards, followed by Titanic, La La Land and All About Eve with 14 noms each.

Sinners grabbed a nomination in nearly every major category, including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Original Screenplay. The same goes for the performances, as Michael B. Jordan captured the nomination for Best Actor. Even Delroy Lindo got nominated for Best Supporting Actor, which is his very first Oscar nomination after 50 years in the business.

Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another walked away with 13 nominations and Yorgos Lanthimos' Bugonia scored four. Apple's F1 actually got nominated for Best Picture, which is unusual for a popcorn-style blockbuster. Netflix scored Best Picture noms for both Frankenstein and Train Dreams.

Netflix also got its flowers for the international animated sensation KPop Demon Hunters. It got nominated for Best Animated Feature and, of course, Best Original Song.

The 98th annual Academy Awards will take place on March 15, with Conan O'Brien returning to host. It'll be broadcast live on ABC. The awards ceremony will be moving to YouTube in 2029.
