Will Smith's long wait for an Oscar finally came to an end after he won the Best Actor award for his role in King Richard, a move based on the life of Venus and Serena Williams' father, Richard Williams.

Although Smith's bust-up with comedian Chris Rock overshadowed much of the evening's events, it didn't prevent CODA and its cast from receiving plenty of accolades.

Written and directed by Sian Heder, the movie is an English remake of the 2014 French-Belgian film La Famille Bélier. As a CODA (Child of Deaf Adults), Ruby finds herself torn between pursuing her passion at Berklee College of Music and the fear of abandoning her parents.

The film stars the likes of Emilia Jones, Marlee Matlin and Troy Kotsur, who won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor this year.
