Benedict Cumberbatch, Andrew Garfield, Olivia Colman, Dame Judi Dench and Sir Kenneth Branagh are among the British stars who have landed Oscar nominations.
Cumberbatch received a nod for his role as a cruel rancher in Jane Campion's western The Power Of The Dog, which leads the pack with 12 nominations, but will face stiff competition from frontrunner Will Smith, who is nominated for his turn as the father of Venus and Serena Williams in King Richard.
They are nominated alongside Garfield for his turn as Rent playwright Jonathan Larson in Tick, Tick...Boom!, Javier Bardem for Being The Ricardos and Denzel Washington for The Tragedy Of Macbeth.
Campion makes history as the first woman to be nominated for the best director Oscar twice.
She was nominated for The Piano in 1994.
The Power Of The Dog, her return to the big screen following a foray into television, is nominated for 12 prizes, including best picture, while stars Kirsten Dunst, her partner Jesse Plemons and co-star Kodi Smit-McPee, are all recognised in supporting categories.
Iain Canning and Emile Sherman, who produced The Power Of The Dog, said it had been an “incredible privilege” to work with Campion.
“She is a visionary director and one of the world’s finest filmmakers,” they said in a statement on Tuesday. “Her artistry and graceful command of this story can be seen in every frame of the film and we are so grateful to The Academy for recognising it with 12 nominations.”
Colman, who won the best actress Oscar in 2019 for her role in The Favourite, has landed her second nomination in that category for her role as a mother reflecting on her past in The Lost Daughter.
She picked up a supporting nod last year for her turn in The Father.
She will compete for the best actress gong against Kristen Stewart for her performance as Diana, Princess of Wales in Spencer, Jessica Chastain for The Eyes Of Tammy Faye, Penelope Cruz for Parallel Mothers and Nicole Kidman for Being The Ricardos.
Dame Judi and Ciaran Hinds have both landed nominations for their performances in Sir Kenneth's autobiographical film Belfast.
The black-and-white film, inspired by the actor's childhood in Northern Ireland, has also landed the filmmaker best director and best original screenplay nominations, while the film is in the running for best picture, with a total of seven nods.
Sir Kenneth thanked Academy voters for their "generous recognition".
"It’s a long way from the streets of Belfast to the Academy Awards," he said.
"Today, I think of my mother and father, and my grandparents - how proud they were to be Irish, how much this city meant to them. They would have been overwhelmed by this incredible honour - as am I.”
Hinds, who was born in Belfast, is nominated in the best supporting actor category alongside The Power Of The Dog's Smit-McPhee and Plemons, Troy Kotsur for Coda, and JK Simmons for Being The Ricardos.
