Can you believe it? Meryl Streep and Jack Nicholson have a combined total of six Oscar wins, but which one of them has the most nominations? It's an exciting time in Hollywood as we gear up for the 96th Academy Awards, also known as the Oscars, where the best and brightest will be honored for their achievements in the film industry.
On Sunday, March 10, the annual awards ceremony will take place at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood, California. The nominations were announced back in January and one film, Oppenheimer, has been leading the pack as the favorite to take home the top prize. Director Christopher Nolan and star Cillian Murphy are predicted to win in their respective categories, with Oppenheimer also in the running for best picture.
Cillian will be facing tough competition in his category, with fellow nominees Paul Giamatti for The Holdovers and Colman Domingo for Rustin. Meanwhile, Emma Stone has also been nominated for her role as Bella Baxter in Poor Things and will be up against Annette Bening for Nyad, Lily Gladstone for Killers of the Flower Moon, and Sandra Hüller for Anatomy of a Fall.
But let's not forget about the all-time record holders for Oscar nominations. The legendary John Williams, known for his iconic film scores, has the most nominations of any living star with a whopping 54 nominations and five wins under his belt. He has been recognized for his work on films such as Fiddler on the Roof, The Towering Inferno, Star Wars, E.T., and Schindler's List. And at 92 years old, he's still going strong with a nomination this year for his work on Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.
However, there is one person who surpasses even John Williams in Oscar history. Walt Disney, the mastermind behind the beloved Disney empire, holds the record for the most nominations and wins in Oscar history. He received a total of 59 nominations during his lifetime and won an impressive 22 times. Beginning with his first win in 1932 for the short cartoon Flowers and Trees, Walt continued to be celebrated throughout his illustrious career. Even after his passing in 1966, he received a posthumous win in 1968 for best short subject with the cartoon Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day.
So, as we eagerly await the results of this year's Oscars, let's not forget to honor the incredible achievements of John Williams and Walt Disney, two legends in the world of film.
