Dune Leads This Year's BAFTA Film Awards With 11 Nominations

The EE BAFTA Film Awards are set to take place on March 13, just a few months ahead of the television awards ceremony, which will be held later this year. On Feb. 3, the nominees for each film category were announced, including the highly anticipated rising star award, which previously saw “Top Boy” star Michael Ward take the win back in 2020 and “Rocks” star Bukky Bakray win in 2021. Now in its 17th year, the rising star award is the only one voted for by the British public.

Strong contenders for this year’s awards ceremony include “Dune”, with a total of eleven nominations, and “The Power of the Dog” with eight nominations, followed by “Belfast” with six total nominations. “Licorice Pizza”, “No Time To Die”, and “West Side Story” received four nominations each.
