With six nominations, Mank leads the field, closely followed by The Trial Of The Chicago 7 with five. The Father, Nomadland, and Promising Young Woman all get four.
Minari has been tipped as a major awards player, but there was some controversy that the HFPA placed it in the Best Foreign Language category (as the primary language of the film is Korean, despite being filmed in the USA). Other awards bodies may be slightly more lenient. And after several years of not nominating a female director for the Best Director category, HFPA have nominated three this year: Emerald Fennell, Regina King, and Chloé Zhao. See, wasn't so hard, was it?
It's also been announced that Jane Fonda will be recipient of this year's Cecil B. DeMille Award.
The winners will be announced on Sunday 28th February 2021, with Tina Fey and Amy Poehler returning to host duties, but with a little twist: Poehler will host from Los Angeles, whilst Fey will host in New York .
Congratulations to all nominees!
There's more awards shenanigans coming tomorrow (4th February) when the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) announce the nominations for this year's awards.
