"Ryan Coogler's "Sinners" did something that had never been done before Thursday morning: It was nominated for 16 Oscars. The previous record was held by "Titanic," "All About Eve," and "La La Land," which all notched 14. Yes, there was a new category this year (Casting) and that helped but "Sinners" added an extra nomination over the previous record just to destroy that talking point."
"All in all, it was an impressive morning for the Academy, a body that has been criticized before when it comes to diversity but cited films from around the world for 2025, including multiple nominations for "The Secret Agent" and "Sentimental Value," both picked as one of the ten best films of 2025. They were joined by "Bugonia," "F1," "Frankenstein," "Hamnet," "Marty Supreme," "One Battle After Another," and "Train Dreams.""
Sinners earned 16 Academy Award nominations, surpassing previous record holders Titanic, All About Eve, and La La Land, which had 14 nominations.
