The post 2021 Critics’ Choice Awards: “Nomadland” and “The Crown” Win Big appeared first on Entertainment For Us.
]]>The triumph of Nomadland isn’t all that surprising because it comes only a week after this film topped the list of Golden Globe winners. It came out victorious in four different categories this time around—best picture, best director, best-adapted screenplay, and best cinematography.
Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom followed closely with three wins, including the posthumous best actor award for Chadwick Boseman. Minari, Promising Young Woman, and The Trial of the Chicago 7 were right behind with two awards each.
The Crown repeated its Golden Globe triumph by winning four trophies—best drama and acting awards for Josh O’Connor, Emma Corrin, and Gillian Anderson in their respective categories. Apple TV’s underrated sitcom Ted Lasso was the absolute winner in the comedy field with three awards.
The 26th Critics’ Choice Awards were held on March 7th, with Taye Diggs returning to host for the third time.

Emmy winner Glynn Turman, Tony and Olivier nominee Colman Domingo and Michael Potts also star.
The story follows Ma Rainey, a blues singer in 1927 Chicago, as she records her new album. Then tensions boil over between her, her white agent and producer and her bandmates.
George C. Wolfe is set to direct from a script by Ruben Santiago-Hudson. Denzel Washington is producing alongside Todd Black and Dany Wolf. Constanza Romero is executive producing. Branford Marsalis has been set as the composer.
David and Washington have previously worked together on the 2010 revival of Wilson’s Fences on Broadway.
In 2016, Washington directed and starred alongside Davis in the acclaimed film adaptation, for which Davis won an Academy Award.
