Oscars 2021: all of the winners at the 93rd Academy Awards

The 93rd Academy Awards have wrapped for the night.

An Oscars like no other in recent history, the ceremony took place at Los Angeles's Union Station, with no musical performances or montages to break up the show, and no host to tie the event together.

With three awards, the evening belonged to Nomadland, much like the rest of the awards season. The film won Best Picture, as well as Best Director for Chloe Zhao and Best Actress for Frances McDormand.

Mank, Ma Rainey's Black Bottom, Sound of Metal, SoulJudas and the Black Messiah and The Father all won two awards apiece.

British actor Sir Anthony Hopkins won the Best Actor Oscar, but was not at the ceremony, or the London screening, to pick up his award. The Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress awards went to Daniel Kaluuya for Judas and the Black Messiah and Youn Yuh-jung for Minari, respectively.
