Oscars 2021: Full list of nominations for the 93rd Academy Awards

March 15, 2021 by Gary Collinson

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences has announced the nominations for the 93rd Academy Awards, with Netflix and David Fincher’s Mank leading the field with nominations in ten categories overall.

Mank will contest the Oscar for Best Picture alongside The Father, Judas and the Black Messiah, Minari, Nomadland, Promising Young Woman, Sound of Metal and The Trial of the Chicago 7, while Fincher is up for Best Director alongside Lee Isaac Chung (Minari), Emerald Fennell (Promising Young Woman), Chloe Zhao (Nomadland) and Thomas Vinterberg (Another Round).

With nods for Fennell and Zhao, this marks the first time that two women have been up for Best Director in the same year, while there’s also increased diversity in the acting categories with nine people of colour among those recognised compared to one last time around.
