One Battle After Another was the big winner at Sunday night's (22.02.26) EE BAFTA Film Awards, bagging six prizes.

The action-thriller - which stars Leonardo DiCaprio, 51, Sean Penn, 65, and 25 year old Chase Infiniti - won Best Film, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Cinematography, and Best Editing at the event, held at London's Royal Festival Hall.

Also, One Battle After Another's director Paul Thomas Anderson, 55, was crowned Best Director, and Penn was named Best Supporting actor for his role as Colonel Steven J. Lockjaw.

After Song Sung Blue star Kate Hudson, 46, revealed Anderson as Best Director, he said in his acceptance speech: "I'm so happy about your appreciation for this film."

Meanwhile, I Swear bagged three accolades - Best Leading Actor and the EE BAFTA Rising Star Award for Robert Aramayo (John Davidson), as well as Best Casting.

Aramayo, 33, was in shock after Shadow Force actress Kerry Washington, 49, announced him as the Best Leading Winner.

He said in his acceptance speech: "I honestly cannot believe that I have won this award. I really, really cannot."

Joining I Swear with three prizes was Frankenstein - Best Costume Design, Best Production Design, and Best Make-up and Hair.

Sinners also secured three awards - Best Supporting Actress for 39 year old Wunmi Mosaku (Annie), Best Original Screenplay, and Best Original Score (Ludwig Goransson)

Hamnet, however, received two big accolades - Outstanding British film, and Best Leading Actress for Jessie Buckley (Agnes Hathaway).

Buckley, 36, dedicated her award to the women who inspired her to break the mould.

After Peaky Blinders actor Cillian Murphy, 49, declared her as the Best Leading Actress recipient, she said in her acceptance speech: "This really does belong to the women past, present and future that have taught me and continued to teach me how to do it differently.

"You are all just radical, and you're doing it for the naughty girls, and I'm in awe of all your incredible performances.

"I love what I do. I love cinema. 
I believe in storytelling to bring us together as a community. I believe in women's voices to tell those stories."

Elsewhere on the night, Zootropolis 2 was named Best Animated Film, Avatar: Fire and Ash came out on top in the Best Special Visual Effects category, and F1's received Best Sound.
