"Sinners" came into the 2026 Oscars with the most 91³Ô¹ÏÍøs ever, 16, but it was "One Battle After Another" that took home marquee awards like Best Picture and Best Director on Sunday night. Here's how to watch and what to know about the 98th annual Academy Awards.

Where to watch the Oscars with cable

The 98th annual Academy Awards were broadcast live on ABC stations, as well as on  worldwide, on Sunday, March 15, 2026.

How to stream the Oscars

The Oscars streamed live on Hulu and was available live on ABC.com and the ABC app if those services were connected to your regular TV provider. Other streaming services like YouTubeTV, AT&T TV and FuboTV also carried the show. 

The Oscars will be available to stream Monday on ABC.com and Hulu for those who missed it live.

Who were the Oscar nominees?

"Sinners" was eyeing a big night after nabbing a record-breaking 16 91³Ô¹ÏÍøs, including for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actress, Best Supporting Actor and Best Actor. Michael B. Jordan brought home the golden statue for taking on the dual roles of twin brothers Smoke and Stack, and Autumn Durald Arkapaw won for Best Cinematography, the first woman to win the award in Oscar history.

"One Battle After Another" was also up for a slew of top awards, winning Best Picture, Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay, the first Oscar wins for Paul Thomas Anderson after being nominated 11 times prior to this year's ceremony.

Matt Berry, the star of TV shows such as "The IT Crowd," "What We Do in the Shadows" and "Toast of London," was the announcer for the Oscars this year.

Where were the Oscars held?

The 2026 Oscars were held at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.
