Paul Mescal and a chic Jessie Buckley posed together at the PGA Awards 2026 held at the Fairmont Century Plaza in Los Angeles on Saturday night.

The Hamnet co-stars looked in great spirits at the event despite their film missing out on a top prize on the night.

The film - which follows the story of William Shakespeare and his wife Agnes navigating the death of their son Hamnet - was nominated in the Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Pictures category and was trumped by One Battle After Another.

At the event they did however present an award on stage, with Jessie, 36, showing off her sophisticated sense of style in a one-shoulder black dress.

She added strappy heels to her look and accessorised with a pair of diamond earrings.

Paul, 30, meanwhile showed off his individual style in a brown jacket, baggy trousers and red tie.

Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another nabbed the best picture prize at the awards.

Hollywood heavy hitters flooded into the Fairmont Century Plaza in Beverly Hills on Saturday to await the news of the winners with breathless suspense.

The most hotly anticipated category, the Darryl F. Zanuck Award for Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Pictures, was filled with acclaimed movies that have emerged as contenders for the upcoming Oscars.

In 17 of the past 22 years, the winner of the Zanuck award has gone onto triumph in the best picture category at the Academy Awards.

Oscars victory inched that much closer Saturday night for One Battle After Another, which stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Sean Penn, Teyana Taylor and Regina Hall.

Anderson accepted the prize for his latest opus this Saturday night, accompanied by his fellow producer on the project Sara Murphy.

Taylor and Hall had taken the stage together earlier that evening, joining a star-studded lineup of showbiz luminaries who presented at the fete.

Wunmi Mosaku and Delroy Lindo, both up for Oscars for their supporting roles in One Battle After Another, addressed the assembled luminaries as well.

One Battle After Another triumphed over a category including the Brad Pitt vehicle F1, and the Timothee Chalamet starrer Marty Supreme helmed by Josh Safdie.

The film was nominated in the Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Pictures category and was trumped by One Battle After Another.

The movie follows the story of William Shakespeare and his wife Agnes navigating the death of their son Hamnet.

At the event they did however present an award on stage, with Jessie, 36, showing off her sophisticated sense of style in a one-shoulder black dress.

She added strappy heels to her look and accessorised with a pair of diamond earrings as she spoke on stage.

Paul, 30, meanwhile showed off his individual style in a brown jacket, baggy trousers and red tie.

Bugonia - the latest collaboration between director Yorgos Lanthimos and his muse Emma Stone, both of whom were producers - was also a competitor in that field.

Chloe Zhao's biopic Hamnet starring Paul and Jessie was also in contention, as is Guillermo Del Toro's Frankenstein; the Norwegian film Sentimental Value; the buzzy mystery Weapons; and the rugged historical picture Train Dreams.

Ryan Coogler's vampire movie Sinners, which has achieved a record as the most Oscar-nominated film of all time, rounded out the theatrical motion picture category.

However just last weekend Hamnet did win Outstanding British Film at the 2026 British Academy Film Awards.

Paul, who plays Shakespeare in the film, attended the ceremony with his girlfriend Gracie Abrams, 26, at London's Royal Festival Hall.

After Stormzy announced the film had won, the camera cut to the Hamnet cast and crew and Paul was seen leaning in to give Gracie a kiss.

The couple have been in a relationship since 2024 but have largely kept their relationship out of the spotlight until now.

Paul earned a Supporting Actor BAFTA nod for his role in Hamnet but lost out to Sean Penn for One Battle After Another.

The Normal People star and his girlfriend packed on the PDA as they made their red carpet debut as a couple before the ceremony.
