While Rosamund Pike was named Best Actress in the Comedy and Musical category for her role in I care a lot, Schitt's Creek was named the Best TV series- musical or comedy. Disney's Soul bagged the Best animated film award.

Other awards include Queen's Gambit for Best television movie, Anya Taylor Joy for Best television actress for her role in Queen's Gambit and Aaron Sorkin for the Best screenplay in his The trial of Chicago 7.

Minari did not make it into the main competition as it was screened under foreign language films despite being based in America. However, the film has been considered as one that could create ripples in the upcoming Oscars. The fact that the movie was made to compete in the foreign cinema category due to its language has been widely criticised.
