While the ongoing fires in Los Angeles have delayed some domestic award nominations, the British Academy Film Awards have moved forward with their nomination announcement. This year’s BAFTA nods favored several films already buzzy on the awards circuit, including A Complete Unknown, Anora, The Brutalist, and Conclave.
Conclave led the BAFTA nods with 12 total nominations, including Best Film. Falling just behind are Emilia Pérez (11 noms) and The Brutalist (9 noms). After that, a three-way tie between Anora, Dune: Part Two, and Wicked, each with 7 nominations.
This year’s BAFTA Awards will also introduce a new category, Children’s And Family Film. Nominations in this category include The Wild Robot, Flow, and the latest Wallace and Gromit flick, Vengeance Most Fowl.
Check out the full list of nominations below.
