Starting point is 00:00:00 It's March 15th. Here's your entertainment news in two minutes. Hollywood's biggest night is here with the 2026 Oscar ceremony live from the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles this Sunday. Conan O'Brien returns as host, bringing stars together for the awards. Key races include Best Picture Pitting Ryan Cougler's Sinners against Paul Thomas Anderson's one battle after another. Best actor sees Michael B. Jordan surging in sinners, challenging Timothy Chalameh, from Marty Supreme. Earlier this week, Buzz built around sinners shattering the record for most nominations in a single film. Jordan grabbed Best Actor at the recent SAG Awards and the cast won ensemble too. That momentum carries weight since SAG members overlap heavily with Academy voters.
