Oscars 2021: Nomadland, Sir Anthony Hopkins and Daniel Kaluuya win big at 93rd Academy Awards – full list of winners

Sir Anthony Hopkins and Daniel Kaluuya scooped top prizes as Britain enjoyed an award-laden night at the 2021 Oscars, with a total of six wins.

Road movie Nomadland won the top prize at this year's awards, where director Chloe Zhao made history as the first woman of colour and second woman to win best female director.

Nomadland, which tells the story about a woman travelling through the American West, also scooped a best actress prize for its star Frances McDormand.

The most high-profile British winner on the night was Sir Anthony, who was named best actor for his role in The Father, in which he plays an ageing man struggling with memory loss.

It is the Welshman’s second Oscar, coming 29 years after he won best actor in 1992 for The Silence Of The Lambs.

This is the longest gap between wins by any actor in this category in the history of the Oscars.

The 83-year-old also becomes the oldest person to win an Academy Award for acting.

Kaluuya was named best supporting actor for his portrayal of Black Panther party leader Fred Hampton in the the film Judas & the Black Messiah.

The writer, actor and director Emerald Fennell had been nominated in two categories for her film Promising Young Woman.

While she missed out on best director, she won best original screenplay, the first British woman to win in this category since it was established in its current form in 1958.
