入圍本屆「最佳導演」及「新晉導演」最後五強的導演共有十一位，包括七位「最佳導演」候選人及六位「新晉導演」候選人，陣容鼎盛。榮獲提名「最佳導演」的有（按大會提名名單排序）舒淇 (《女孩》)、吳啓忠 (《世外》)、梁栢堅 (《再見UFO》)、聯合導演李子俊與周汶儒 (《私家偵探》)以及陳可辛與韓帥 (《醬園弄‧懸案》)，其中《世外》、《再見UFO》及《醬園弄‧懸案》更入圍競逐本屆「最佳電影」殊榮。

本屆「新晉導演」獎項的五個候選名額共有六位新晉導演入圍競逐，包括（按大會提名名單排序）執導女性成長電影《女孩》的舒淇、奇幻動畫《世外》的吳啓忠、跨時空愛情片《他年她日》的龔兆平、犯罪動作片《風林火山》的麥浚龍，以及懸疑都市傳說《UFO離奇命案》的聯合導演郭家禧與李振傑。

在六位『新晉導演』候選人當中，龔兆平憑首部執導長片《他年她日》入圍，影片合共獲得五項提名，涵蓋美術、服裝及音樂等。麥浚龍則憑《風林火山》一舉成為本屆金像獎的大熱焦點之一，影片合共獲得十二項提名，為今屆入圍數目最多的作品。聯合導演郭家禧、李振傑則憑《UFO離奇命案》聯同編劇團隊同時入圍「最佳編劇」，而陳湛文亦憑此片入圍「最佳男配角」。

多年來憑演技獲得肯定的舒淇演而優則導，今屆首作《女孩》同時首次晉身「最佳導演」候選行列，她以一名青春期女孩為主角，透過與家人、朋友之間的衝突與拉扯，描寫當代女性在家庭責任與自我追尋之間的掙扎，令本片除角逐兩項導演獎外，亦同時入圍「最佳編劇」及「最佳攝影」的提名。

出身本地動畫界的新一代創作人吳啓忠，早年已憑多齣短片屢獲國際獎項肯定。今屆他以奇幻動畫長片《世外》首次角逐「最佳導演」，並入圍「新晉導演」。影片改編自日本小說，以死後世界為舞台，講述靈魂引導者與少女橫跨生死的旅程。作品以瑰麗而帶點殘酷的視覺風格，探討執念與寬恕，展現近年香港動畫在技術與敍事上的突破。

具多年執導經驗的梁栢堅憑《再見UFO》首度角逐「最佳導演」，電影以華富邨UFO傳言為起點，串連三位童年目擊者橫跨數十年的人生變遷。他以平實細膩的手法，將八十年代以來的香港情懷與集體回憶融入故事之中，透過角色在不同年代的抉擇與失落，刻畫都市人在環境變遷下對初心與歸屬的追尋。影片在今屆橫掃十項提名。

李子俊與周汶儒聯合執導的《私家偵探》，以犯罪懸疑包裝都市情感，二人憑此片共同入圍「最佳導演」。故事講述一名偵探接手婚外情調查，卻意外捲入連環兇案；在抽絲剝繭的過程中，逐步揭開多段失衡的婚姻與親密關係。影片呈現都市人在婚姻與自我認同之間的矛盾掙扎，為懸疑類型注入情感深度。周汶儒更憑此片同時角逐「最佳編劇」。而古天樂亦憑此入圍「最佳男主角」。

曾兩度奪得金像獎「最佳導演」的陳可辛，今次聯同新一代導演韓帥再度出擊，憑《醬園弄‧懸案》入圍「最佳導演」，電影改編自民國上海著名殺夫分屍奇案，以一名被控弒夫的女子為核心，透過多個視角重構案情。二人以寫實場景、美術造型與群戲調度還原當時社會氛圍，探討性別權力、家庭暴力與輿論審判等議題，令此片於本屆入圍共七項提名。

The 44th Hong Kong Film Awards will be held on 19 April 2026 (Sunday) at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre. Each year, the Hong Kong Film Awards Association (HKFAA) publishes a special commemorative publication to record this major Chinese-language film gala. After the nominations were announced on 10 February, the HKFAA invited all nominees for Best Director, Best Actor and Actress, Best Supporting Actor and Actress, Best New Performer and Best New Director to shoot special photos for the booklet. With one month to go before the ceremony, the event is now in countdown, and today (23 March) the looks of the Best Director and Best New Director nominees are being revealed first.

A total of 11 directors are competing in the final round for Best Director and Best New Director, including 7 Best Director nominees and 6 Best New Director nominees. The nominees for Best Director include (according to the nomination list order) SHU Qi (for Girl), Tommy NG Kai Chung (for Another World), Patrick LEUNG Pak Kin (for Ciao, UFO), co-directors Jonathan LI and CHOU Man Yu (for Behind the Shadows) and co-directors Peter Ho-sun CHAN and HAN Shuai (for She’s Got No Name). Another World, Ciao, UFO and She’s Got No Name are also nominated for this year’s Best Film award.

6 new directors are nominated for the 5 Best New Director places this year. The nominees include (according to the nomination list order) SHU Qi for the coming‑of‑age drama Girl, Tommy NG Kai Chung for the fantasy animation Another World, KUNG Siu Ping for the time‑travel romance Measure in Love, Juno MAK for the crime action film Sons of the Neon Night, as well as co-directors KWOK Ka Hei and Jack LEE Chun Kit for the mystery thriller Unidentified Murder.

Among the Best New Director nominees, KUNG Siu Ping earns a place with his first feature Measure in Love, which has 5 nominations including art direction, costume and music. Juno MAK’s Sons of the Neon Night receives 12 nominations in total, making it one of the hottest contenders this year. Co-directors KWOK Ka Hei and Jack LEE Chun Kit are also nominated for Best Screenplay with Unidentified Murder, while actor CHAN Charm Man Peter is nominated for Best Supporting Actor for the same film.

SHU Qi, long recognised for her acting, now steps behind the camera and is nominated for Best Director for her debut feature Girl. The film follows a teenage girl and her conflicts with family and friends, showing modern women balancing family duties and personal dreams. Girl is also nominated for Best Screenplay and Best Cinematography.

Tommy NG Kai Chung is a new‑generation local animation creator who has won many international awards for his short films. His fantasy animation feature Another World earns him nominations for both Best Director and Best New Director. Adapted from a Japanese novel and set in the afterlife, the film tells the journey between a soul guide and a young girl across life and death, with striking yet harsh visuals exploring obsession and forgiveness.

Experienced director Patrick LEUNG Pak Kin receives his first Best Director nomination with “Ciao, UFO”. Inspired by alleged UFO sightings in Wah Fu Estate, the film follows three childhood witnesses across several decades. Using a gentle and detailed style, it blends Hong Kong memories from the 1980s onwards into the story and shows city dwellers searching for their original aspiration and a sense of belonging; the film has ten nominations this year.

Behind the Shadows, co-directed by Jonathan LI and CHOU Man Yu, uses a crime mystery to frame an urban emotional drama, earning them a shared Best Director nomination. The story begins with a detective investigating an affair and being drawn into a series of murders, slowly revealing broken marriages and relationships. The film brings emotional depth to the mystery genre, earning director CHOU a Best Screenplay nomination and Louis KOO a Best Actor nomination for his performance in the film.

Peter Ho-sun CHAN, a two‑time Best Director winner at the Hong Kong Film Awards, teams up with new‑generation director HAN Shuai for She’s Got No Name. Based on a famous dismemberment case in 1930s Shanghai, the film focuses on a woman accused of killing her husband and retells the case from multiple viewpoints. With realistic sets, detailed art direction and strong ensemble scenes, the film explores gender power, domestic violence and trial by public opinion, and has 7 nominations in total.
