The BAFTAs often go their own way (just see many of this year’s nominees: I Swear, The Ballad of Wallis Island, H is for Hawk), but the British Academy Film Awards can also prove to be a surprisingly prescient bellwether ahead of the Oscars. So, in a tightly contested race between One Battle After Another and Sinners, who triumphed? Or was Hamnet, the homegrown dark horse, the film we shouldn’t have underestimated all along? See all the winners from the 2026 BAFTAs, below.
