Hollywood Music in Media Awards 2026 Nominations: 'The Odyssey,' 'Michael' and Taylor Swift Lead the Pack

The Hollywood Music in Media Awards (HMMA) has announced its 2026 nominations spanning film, television, video games and other visual media, with the 17th annual ceremony set for Wednesday, November 18, at the historic Avalon Hollywood on Vine Street. Five productions tied for the most nominations with three each: Behemoth!, The Odyssey, Michael, Brother Verses Brother and the documentary Linda Perry: Let It Die Here. Among individual nominees, composers Daniel Pemberton and Mina Samy led the field with four nominations apiece. Ludwig Göransson earned three nods for The Odyssey — for its score, the song "When I'm Home" co-written with James Blake, Travis Scott and Christopher Nolan, and that song's music video. Last year, Göransson won two HMMAs for his work on Sinners and went on to claim both the Oscar and Golden Globe for Best Original Score; the HMMA has also previously recognized his score for Black Panther, which likewise won an Academy Award. Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff received a nomination for "I Knew It, I Knew You" from Toy Story 5 in the animated film song category, while Diane Warren earned a nod for "One Right Here" from Maserati: The Brothers, performed by Andrea Bocelli and Jennifer Hudson. The HMMA is widely regarded as a reliable bellwether for the Golden Globes, Oscars, Grammys and Emmys. Limited tickets are on sale now at TicketTailor.com.
