The British Academy has revealed its list of nominees for the 2025 film awards. Announced on Wednesday by last year’s BAFTA Rising Star winner Mia McKenna-Bruce and Will Sharpe, star of “The White Lotus” (and also a BAFTA TV award winner in 2020),

She lauded the list of nominations, particularly its variety, noting that six different genres were represented on the best film list. She also highlighted that 14 of the 24 nominations in the acting categories were first-timers, and that whoever wins the best actress award will be a first-time BAFTA winner.

Surprises And Snubs: Only five actors are nominated in the Oscars and Screen Actors Guild's acting categories, while the BAFTAs nominate six in each.
