75th Annual BAFTA Nominations Revealed

Awards season is getting more and more exciting with Oscar nominations just days away from being revealed. Yesterday, to add to the excitement, the British Academy of Film and Television Arts announced their nominations for this past year of film and television.

For the 75th year of the BAFTAs, there were led by Denis Villeneuve’s Dune with 11 nominations, most of which were in the technical categories. Jane Campion’s The Power of the Dog followed closely behind with eight nominations, while Kenneth Branagh’s Belfast earned six.

“The key thing to the whole review is making sure more work is seen by more voters and all the changes were geared to that because it’s about leveling the playing field,” BAFTA chair Krishnendu Majumdar said of the nominations. “It’s not about stipulating quotas [in the nominations], because we didn’t feel that wasn’t right and people didn’t want that. They want their work to be recognized.”

See the full list of nominations below.
