Oscars 2026 winners list updates as two films tie in rare moment

The 2026 Oscars is already a great night for several films, as the winners are announced. In a rare moment, two films took home the Oscar for best live action short. This has only happened six times before.

Kicking off the show, Amy Madigan won the Best Supporting Actress Award for her role in Weapons. This was the first Oscar for the star, who is aged 75.

The actress played Aunt Gladys in the horror film. She was up against Teyana Taylor, IngaIbsdotter Lilleaas, Wunmi Mosaku and Elle Fanning. She shouted them out in her speech, as well as her husband, Ed Harris. Though Ed has not won an Oscar, he has been nominated four times.

The first ever Oscar for Best Casting was awarded as well. Casting directors had not been recognised at the awards before, despite the Oscars being in it's 98th edition. However, this year, the category was introduced and the first award went to Cassandra Kulukundis for One Battle After Another.

She thanked all the casting directors who came before her and "never got the chance" to be nominated for an Oscar. She also thanked those who "fought tirelessly" for the category to be added to the Oscars.

The big winner of the night is already Sinners. The horror film follows 1930s twins Smoke and Stack, both played by Michael B. Jordan, as they are confronted with a supernatural evil as they return their home town in the USA South. It was nominated in 16 categories this year, breaking the record for the most nominations taken by a film. The record had previously been held by La La Land, Titanic and All About Eve, which all held 14 nominations.

It is expected to be a good night for One Battle After Another too, as the film is not only a favourite for Best Picture, but its director, Paul Thomas Anderson, is a favourite to take home the Best Director Award.

Jessie Buckley is also thought to be in for a good night, as she has swept the awards leading up to the Oscars. Jessie is nominated for Best Actress for her role as Agnes in Hamnet.

While Timothee Chalamet was a favourite to take home the Best Actor win for his role as Marty Mauser in Marty Supreme, his odds have been slashed. The actor gave a town hall before the Oscars voting closed where he said "no one cares" about opera and ballet. His words became a huge controversy online, which many believe may have tanked his chances of taking home the award.
