Frankenstein

Coming in third on this list is Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, which earned 9 Oscar nominations in categories such as Best Picture, Actor in a Supporting Role for Jacob Elordi, Costume Design, Make-Up and Hairstyling, Original Score, Cinematography, Production Design, and Sound.

Del Toro shows a new take on the classic Mary Shelley gothic sci-fi drama, Frankenstein, in which the film sheds more light on the ambitious Dr. Victor Frankenstein and the Creature's father-son relationship.

Marty Supreme

Marty Supreme also grabbed 9 nominations, which is most notably considered a big break for Timothée Chalamet for his third Oscar nomination in a row: Best Actor in a Leading Role.

Marty Supreme follows a relentless New York City table tennis hustler, Marty Mauser (loosely based on the ping-pong legend Marty Reisman), who risked everything for the sake of his pursuit of greatness to enter the international competition.

Streaming Platforms: HBO Max (lands on the streamer sometime in April)

Sentimental Value

Just like Frankenstein and Marty Supreme, a total of 9 nominations were presented to Sentimental Value.

The film had not only scored one Best Actress in a Supporting Role, but two: Elle Fanning, for her performance as Rachel Kemp, the estranged actress, and Norwegian actress Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas, for showcasing her breakout role as Agnes Borg.

Sentimental Value focuses on estranged sisters, Nora and Agnes, who reunite when their once-famous director father, Gustav, returns after their mother's death. In Gustav's attempt to revive his career with a personal film project, the film leads to confrontations about art, legacy, and family trauma.

Hamnet

Hamnet gathered 8 Oscar nominations: Best Picture, Best Director for Chloé Zhao (Eternals, Nomadland), Jessie Buckley (I'm Thinking of Ending Things, Beast) for Actress in a Leading Role, Costume Design, Achievement in Casting, Original Score, and Production Design.

There's no doubt why Hamnet was nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay, considering that the story was to show a different perspective in the classic William Shakespeare play, Hamlet.

Hamnet focuses on the tragic real-life death of Shakespeare's 11-year-old son, Hamnet, from the plague, as the film explores the grief of Agnes (Anne) and William, and how the tragedy may have inspired Hamlet.

The F1 movie earned four Oscar nominations, which include Best Picture, Film Editing, Best Sound, and Visual Effects.

The Secret Agent

Train Dreams

They must persevere and face a new, fiery Na'vi tribe called the Ash People, led by Varang, while the RDA escalates its colonization.

Streaming Platforms: Disney+ (estimated to release around June 2026)

KPop Demon Hunters

One of the biggest breakout films in 2025 was KPop Demon Hunters, and it's no question why it earned an Oscar nomination for both Best Animated Feature Film and Best Original Song, considering that the Sony Animation-made story aimed to win in the aforementioned categories.

Huntr/x is no ordinary K-pop girl group, as their members secretly fight demons to protect humanity from the demons seeking their souls and positive energy.

But what happens when the demons come up with a brand new plan: disguise five demons as the members of their rival K-pop boy band, Saja Boys, to lure the humans into their territory?
