Diane Warren is in the running for an Oscar yet again.
The legendary songwriter has earned a best original song nomination for “Dear Me” from her documentary Diane Warren: Relentless.
She’s up against songs from KPop Demon Hunters, Sinners, Viva Verdi! and Train Dreams.
This is the ninth straight year Warren has earned a best original song nomination, which marks her 17th nod in the category.
If she loses, she will have the most Oscar nominations without a win. She’s currently tied with sound mixer Greg P. Russell for that record.
Though she’s never won, Warren does have an Oscar on her trophy shelf. She was awarded an honorary Oscar in 2022.
The 2026 Oscars will air on Sunday, March 15, at 7 p.m. ET on ABC.
