The accolade for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture was awarded to Conclave, an ensemble film featuring esteemed actors such as Ralph Fiennes and Stanley Tucci. The film’s gripping narrative and the ensemble’s synergy contributed to its well-deserved recognition.
In the television categories, Shōgun dominated the drama awards, with Hiroyuki Sanada winning Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Drama Series and Anna Sawai receiving the award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Drama Series.
