Oscar nominations 2026: Live updates as Academy Award nominees announced now
Oscar season is in full swing! The highly anticipated 2026 Oscar nominations are set to be revealed today, January 22nd. The excitement is palpable as the films vying for the prestigious gold trophies are about to be confirmed live in the vibrant city of California. Will your favorite movies from 2025 secure the recognition they deserve, or will they be overlooked?
This year's contenders showcase a diverse range of genres and talents. Paul Thomas Anderson's critically acclaimed 'One Battle After Another' and the fan-favorite horror-thriller 'Sinners' are strong contenders for multiple nominations. However, they face stiff competition from other notable films like 'Hamnet,' 'Marty Supreme,' 'Sentimental Value,' and Netflix's 'Train Dreams.' The acting categories are expected to feature major A-list stars, including Leonardo DiCaprio, Timothée Chalamet, Michael B. Jordan, Emma Stone, Jessie Buckley, and Rose Byrne.
The anticipation is building, and you can watch the live nominations from the comfort of your home. I'll be providing real-time updates as the nominations unfold, ensuring you don't miss a single moment.
