Which film received the most nominations at the 2026 BAFTAs?

One Battle After Another received the most nominations at the 2026 BAFTAs, with 14.

Paul Thomas Anderson’s politically charged action thriller led the field when nominations were announced on 27 January 2026. Its 14 nods covered top prizes and craft categories, as well as several acting recognitions for its ensemble.

Sinners followed closely with 13 nominations, while Hamnet and Marty Supreme each received 11. Those figures explain why the four films were often discussed as the leading contenders of the ceremony, although nomination totals do not predict the final win count exactly.

One Battle After Another ultimately turned its leading position into six victories, including Best Film and Best Director. The film’s nomination total is therefore distinct from its awards total: 14 nominations before the ceremony, six wins afterward. The 79th BAFTA Film Awards honoured films released during 2025.
