When it comes to Oscar nominations, Sinners is already leading the race.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced the nominations for the 98th Academy Awards on Thursday, with Ryan Coogler’s period vampire horror film shattering records by earning 16 nominations—the most ever received by a single feature. The milestone surpasses the previous high of 14 nominations held by All About Eve, Titanic and La La Land.
“Sinners” secured recognition in the top categories, including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Original Screenplay. Its star, Michael B. Jordan, received a Best Actor nomination, while supporting cast members Wunmi Mosaku and Delroy Lindo were also nominated.
Close behind was One Battle After Another, which earned 13 nominations. The film’s Golden Globe-winning actress Teyana Taylor will compete against Mosaku in the Best Supporting Actress category, while Lindo faces off against Sean Penn and Benicio del Toro in the supporting actor race.
The nominations were announced by actors Lewis Pullman and Oscar nominee Danielle Brooks. Hollywood’s biggest night will air live on ABC on March 15 at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT, with Conan O’Brien returning as host. A full list of nominees follows.
