The BAFTA Film Awards return this evening at the Royal Festival Hall in London’s Southbank Centre, where this year’s nominees are lining the red carpet. Scroll down for pics.
This year’s awards ceremony is hosted by David Tennant (picking up the baton from Richard E. Grant).
Leading the noms this year is Christopher Nolan’s atomic biopic Oppenheimer, which snagged 13 noms, including best film, director, and adapted screenplay. Oppenheimer was one nomination away from equaling All Quiet on the Western Front’s record 2023 haul of 14 noms. Trailing Nolan is Greek filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos, who clocked 11 nominations with his latest black comedy, Poor Things. Lanthimos’ haul also includes best film alongside outstanding british film and adapted screenplay for Tony McNamara.
Chasing the leading two is Martin Scorsese’s Osage epic Killers Of The Flower, which clocked nine nominations. The 3-hour plus pic pops up in best film, supporting actor for Robert DeNiro, and cinematography for Rodrigo Prieto. However, the film didn’t land noms in either best director or best actress (Lily Gladstone), where it had been longlisted and earmarked as a frontrunner. Jonathan Glazer’s breakout Cannes drama The Zone Of Interest also netted nine nominations, giving the British filmmaker his best-ever BAFTAs haul.
The awards themselves will be handed out beginning at 5pm local time on Sunday at Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall.
The ceremony will air on BBC One and BBC iPlayer from 7pm local, a two-hour delay from the start of the live proceedings. Contrary to last year, the final four categories will not be broadcast in real time. Britbox is airing the Film Awards in the U.S.
