LOS ANGELES -- At the 2026 Oscars, the biggest and brightest stars from across Hollywood and the world of entertainment converged in Los Angeles to honor the most prestigious works of filmmaking delivered over the last year.
Scroll below to see how the night unfolded, and check out all coverage of the 98th Academy Awards here.
Sean Penn has won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for "One Battle After Another" at the 2026 Academy Awards.
Penn was not in attendance to receive the award.
Other nominees in the category included Benicio del Toro ("One Battle After Another"), Jacob Elordi ("Frankenstein"), Delroy Lindo ("Sinners") and Stellan Skarsgrd ("Sentimental Value").
"The Singers" and "Two People Exchanging Saliva" have tied, with both films winning the Oscar for best live action short film.
There have been six ties in Oscars history, most recently at the 2013 ceremony when "Skyfall" and "Zero Dark Thirty" tied for sound editing.
Other nominees in the category were "Butcher's Stain," "Jane Austen's Period Drama" and "A Friend of Dorothy."
Anne Hathaway took the presenter stage with fashion icon Anna Wintour, the designer that inspired Meryl Streep's character in "The Devil Wears Prada."
When Hathaway asked Wintour what she thought of her dress, Wintour played the part of the hard-to-please designer, and ignored her.
Hathaway will star in the upcoming sequel, "The Devil Wears Prada 2" which is set to debut May 1.

Cassandra Kulukundis has won the Oscar for Best Casting for "One Battle after Another" at the 2026 Academy Awards.
In her acceptance speech, Kulukundis dedicated her award to all the casting directors who "never got a chance to get up here, who didn't even get a chance to get their name on the movie."
This was a first, in the history of the Oscars, that a statuette was handed out not only to the stars but also to the person who casts them.
The inaugural casting Oscar doesn't recognize the performance of the actors, unlike the Actor Awards' best cast prize, which "Sinners" won earlier this month, and other comparable accolades. This award, by contrast, recognizes the behind-the-scenes creative process and collaboration by a casting director with the filmmakers to select the actors for their roles and craft a cohesive ensemble.
The other nominees included Nina Gold ("Hamnet"), Jennifer Venditti ("Marty Supreme"), Gabriel Domingues ("The Secret Agent") and Francine Maisler ("Sinners"). Each of the films they worked on are also up for best picture.
