‘One Battle After Another’ Wins Best Film at 2026 BAFTA Awards (Complete Winners List)

The biggest night in British film is often a key predictor of major Oscar races.

Sunday night was the biggest evening of the year for the British film industry, with the BAFTA Film Awards taking place in London. The show is often a bellwether for key Oscar categories, so awards watchers from around the world kept a close eye on the results.

The biggest winner of the ceremony was “One Battle After Another,” which took home the top prize of Best Film, Best Director and Adapted Screenplay for Paul Thomas Anderson, and Supporting Actor for Sean Penn, as well as the Cinematography and Editing categories. It was part of a great night for Warner Bros., as Ryan Coogler’s “Sinners” also had a strong showing with wins for Original Screenplay, Original Score, and Supporting Actress for Wunmi Mosaku.

“Hamnet” received Outstanding British Film, with Jessie Buckley also winning the Leading Actress category. Other notable results included “Zootopia 2” (under its British name “Zootropolis 2”) taking the Animated Film category and “Sentimental Value” winning Film Not in the English Language.
