While the 98th Academy Awards ceremony is scheduled to take place on March 15, the nominations for this year’s edition were recently announced. Leading the pack was Sinners, which made history with a staggering 16 nominations. The Michael B. Jordan starrer broke the previous record held by All About Eve (1950), Titanic (1997), and La La Land (2016), each of which had received 14 Oscar nods.

Following closely behind Sinners, One Battle After Another earned an impressive 13 nominations. With Weapons securing a Best Supporting Actress nomination for Amy Madigan, these titles propelled Warner Bros. to the top of the studio rankings, making it the most-nominated company this year with a remarkable 30 total nods.

In the process, Warner Bros. has also tied its own record set in 2005, when it had bagged 30 overall nominations for films like Million Dollar Baby, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, and The Aviator. With that milestone achieved once again, here’s a closer look at the top five studios that secured the most nominations at the 2026 Oscars, along with the films they produced.
