BAFTA Nominations: ‘The Favourite’ Leads; Love For ‘Roma’, ‘Star Is Born’, ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’, ‘First Man’ & More – Full List
UPDATE, writethru: BAFTA has revealed its nominations for this year’s EE British Academy Film Awards with Fox Searchlight’s The Favourite from Yorgos Lanthimos leading the list of contenders at 12. Also making strong showings are Netflix’s Roma, Warner Bros’ A Star Is Born, Fox’s Bohemian Rhapsody and Universal’s First Man with seven nominations each. See below for the full roster.
Alfonso Cuaron’s Roma notably is also up here for Best Film Not In The English Language, Director, Cinematography, Editing and Original Screenplay, all of which could repeat at the Oscars.
Along with Roma and The Favourite, the Best Film category includes A Star Is Born, BlackKklansman (the latter from Focus with five nominations total) and Universal’s Green Book (eOne in the UK) which has a total four nods. Bohemian Rhapsody is in Oustanding British Film, but First Man made neither cut despite its big nods haul. Annapurna’s Vice fared well in the acting categories and has six mentions overall.
BAFTA is a key stop on the awards season calendar, particularly with so many members overlapping with AMPAS. A notable near shutout today is Disney/Marvel’s Black Panther which has one nomination, in Special Visual Effects, but no love elsewhere despite being in the Oscar conversation. Also, Emily Blunt was not mentioned in Lead Actress for Mary Poppins Returns while If Beale Street Could Talk’s Golden Globe winner Regina King was passed over in Supporting. Widows’ Viola Davis is nominated, but director Steve McQueen is not.
This year sees new eligibility requirements coming into effect concerning the British film categories. All entries into Outstanding British Film and Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer are required to meet at least two of the four BFI Diversity Standards which are a framework for measuring inclusion and representation.
BAFTA members began voting on the nominations December 14 through January 2 while Round Two voting opens today and closes February 6. The ceremony will be held on February 10 from London’s Royal Albert Hall with Joanna Lumley hosting. We’ll be in attendance for our annual live blog as well.
As previously announced, Carol and Colette producers Elizabeth Karlsen and Stephen Woolley, co-founders of Number 9 Films, are to receive the Outstanding British Contribution to Cinema Award. Vying for the EE Rising Star Award, which is voted on by the public, are Jessie Buckley, Cynthia Erivo, Letitia Wright, Lakeith Stanfield and Barry Keoghan.
