VeteransFrances McDormand(Nomadland) andAnthony Hopkins(The Father) instead conquered the statuettes forBest ActressandBest Actor, demolishing all the predictions made.

Anthony Hopkinstherefore wins a second statuette for best actor after 29 years, confirming himself asthe oldest actor to have won one. However,the actor was not present during the ceremony.
