Paul Thomas Anderson was a big winner at the 2026 Academy Awards on Sunday (March 15) at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.

The 55-year-old filmmaker won three awards during this year’s ceremony for his work on One Battle After Another!

Paul picked up the win in three of the major categories – Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Directing and Best Picture, which he shared with fellow producers Adam Somner and Sara Murphy.

One Battle was the second most-nominated movie, with 12 nods, and also won Best Supporting Actor for Sean Penn, Best Film Editing for Andy Jurgensen and Best Casting for Cassandra Kulukundis, marking the inaugural win in the just added category.

If you missed it, Paul‘s wife Maya Rudolph was also in attendance, and took part in a Bridesmaid reunion on stage to present alongside her co-stars, including Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Rose Byrne and Ellie Kemper.
