Major winners of the night included One Battle After Another for Best Picture, Paul Thomas Anderson for Best Director and Adapted Screenplay (One Battle After Another), Michael B. Jordan for Lead Actor (Sinners), Jessie Buckley for Lead Actress (Hamnet), Sean Penn for Supporting Actor (One Battle After Another), Amy Madigan for Supporting Actress (Weapons), Ryan Coogler for Best Original Screenplay (Sinners), and KPop Demon Hunters for Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song (Golden).
