Astra Awards 2026 Winners: Sinners Sweeps, KPop Demon Hunters Stuns, and Stars Shine Bright

Last night, Hollywood’s glitterati gathered for the 2026 Astra Awards, and the red carpet was hotter than a Netflix release on a Friday night. From swoon-worthy wins to jaw-dropping surprises, the ceremony didn’t hold back. Warner Bros.’ Sinners dominated the evening, snatching up multiple awards, while Netflix’s KPop Demon Hunters thrilled animation fans. If you’re keeping tabs on who’s leading the awards season buzz, this was the night that made headlines.

The Astra Awards have quietly become a benchmark for both critical and fan acclaim, blending prestige with just enough irreverence to keep things interesting. Last night’s show proved why the Astras are worth watching—big wins, unexpected performances, and a few red carpet moments we can’t stop talking about.

Big Wins and Show-Stopping Moments

Sinners, Ryan Coogler’s latest powerhouse, left little doubt who owned the night. It won Best Motion Picture – Drama, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Cast Ensemble, among others. Michael B. Jordan’s portrayal in the drama category sealed his reputation as one of the industry’s finest.

Comedy and musical lovers weren’t left out either. One Battle After Another, a WB production, clinched Best Motion Picture – Comedy or Musical, while Timothée Chalamet snagged Best Actor in the category for Marty Supreme. Amanda Seyfried also walked away victorious for her role in The Testament of Ann Lee.

Animated and genre fans had reason to celebrate. Netflix’s KPop Demon Hunters not only took Best Animated Feature but also Best Original Song and Best Voice Over Performance, proving once again that streaming platforms are reshaping Hollywood dominance.

Horror, thriller, action, and sci-fi weren’t ignored. WB’s Weapons scored Best Horror/Thriller Feature, while a very charismatic canine, Indy the Dog, earned Best Performance in a Horror/Thriller. Meanwhile, WB’s Superman soared to Best Action or Sci-Fi Feature, showing that some heroes never retire.
