The awards ceremony may be interrupted due to the devastation caused by the wildfires in Los Angeles, but as the saying goes, the show must go on. The BAFTA nominations were announced on 15 January in London and this time the race has been kept open. Crime-musical Emilia Perez and papal thriller Conclave lead the way with 11 and 12 nominations, respectively.
Although many awards ceremonies were postponed in the wake of the disaster, BAFTA has pledged to press ahead. In addition to Emilia Perez and Conclave, films like A Complete Unknown, The Brutalist and Anora are also competing in major categories including Best Picture.
Surprisingly, this year’s hit musical Wicked was missing from the lineup. The removal of the Jon M. Chu-helmed film is questionable, especially given rumors regarding the film’s Oscar controversy.
Anora, The Brutalist, Conclave and Emilia Perez also scored best director nominations, joining Dune: Part 2 director Denis Villeneuve and The Substance filmmaker Carolee Farguet. Gothic thriller Nosferatu received five nominations at this year’s Golden Globes awards after receiving no nominations.
