The 98th Academy Awards in 2026 shattered numerous records, highlighting a year filled with unpredictability. Historic wins included Norway’s “Sentimental Value,” which secured the nation’s first Best International Feature, and Warner Bros. tying the record for the most Oscar wins in one night with 11 accolades. Additionally, South Korean film “KPop Demon Hunters” made history by winning Best Original Song and Best Animated Feature. Notably, Diane Warren became the record holder for the most nominations without a win, while Autumn Durald Arkapaw broke barriers as the first woman, Black, and Filipino artist to win Best Cinematography. The evening culminated in “Sinners,” which became the first film to win ACE and SAG Cast Ensemble but not Best Picture.
