The British Academy of Film and Television Arts has rolled out the red carpet for its annual BAFTA Film Awards at London’s Royal Festival Hall. The ceremony is about to kick off on what is a typically cold and grey evening in the capital.
Heading into the event, Papal thriller Conclave leads all nominations with 12, including Best Film, Director, Adapted Screenplay, Actor, and Casting.
With the second-largest haul of nominations, Jacques Audiard’s Emilia Perez is vying for a total of 11, including Best Film, Director, Film Not In The English Language, and Support Actress. The film is also nominated in Leading Actress with Karla Sofía Gascón, who was left off the ceremony’s guest following widespread pushback about past racist tweets.
Chasing the leading two is Brady Corbet’s The Brutalist (nine), Sean Baker’s Anora (seven), Denis Villeneuve’s Dune: Part Two (seven), and Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown (six). The BAFTAs are yet another Oscar precursor that may give us a clearer indication of what’s to come at the Dolby on March 2.
The ceremony is airing on a two-hour delay in the UK and U.S., so check back for winners as we update live below. You can follow our live blog from the ceremony here.
