Sinners was the record-breaker this morning with a stunning 16 Oscar nominations, shattering the previous record of 14 jointly held by All About Eve (1950), Titanic (1997) and La La Land (2016). Scroll down for nominees in full.
Sinners is up for Best Picture, Actor Michael B. Jordan, Supporting Actress Wunmi Mosaku, Supporting Actor Delroy Lindo, Director and Original Screenplay for Ryan Coogler, Music Score, Song “I Lied To You”, Cinematography, Production Design, Costume Design, Sound , Editing, Makeup & Hair, Casting, and Visual Effects.
Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Battle After Another followed with 13 nominations, marking a stellar one-two punch for Warner Bros. The studio scored a stellar 30 nominations in total, tying its record number of nominations set in 2005.
Frankenstein, Marty Supreme and Sentimental Value all garnered nine nominations, with Hamnet on eight.
The biggest surprise of the morning was without question the entire shut-out pitched by Wicked: For Good, just one year after the first film in the franchise scored ten nominations, converting in two categories.
Among other surprises were the omissions of Guillermo Del Toro for Best Director and the omissions of two widely tipped actors: Paul Mescal (Hamnet) in the Best Supporting Actor category, and Chase Infiniti (One Battle After Another) in the Best Actress category.

EARLIER: Nominations for the 98th Oscars are being revealed Thursday morning in a special broadcast from the Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Beverly Hills. Refresh this page to see the nominations updated below in real time.
Danielle Brooks and Lewis Pullman will host this morning’s announcement, which is set to begin at 8:30 a.m. ET/5:30 a.m. PT, can be watched live here.
Ryan Coogler’s vampire drama Sinners and Paul Thomas Anderson’s crime drama One Battle After Another are the frontrunners, with some pundits tipping the movies to beat the all-time Oscar nomination record of 14 held jointly by All About Eve (1950), Titanic (1997) and La La Land (2016). Both Warner Bros movies are widely expected to score well across the major categories. The studio should be in for a great — and potentially record-breaking — day, whatever happens.
