“The Favourite” Leads the List of BAFTA Awards Contenders

Olivia Colman in "The Favourite"

At this point in the awards season, we already know who’s leading the way, and the BAFTA nominations didn’t bring any surprises. The Favourite once again lived up to its name and topped the list of contenders after receiving a total of 12 nods.

This royal satire was followed by the other obvious front-runners – Roma, A Star Is Born, Bohemian Rhapsody, and First Man. Each of these films received seven nominations, but only the first two will be competing for the best film award along with The Favourite, BlacKkKlansman and Green Book.

Once again, the public will have an opportunity to cast their votes in one special category – Rising Star Award. They’ll have to choose between five amazing newcomers – Barry Keoghan (The Killing of a Sacred Deer), Cynthia Erivo (Widows), Jessie Buckley (Beast), Lakeith Stanfield (Sorry to Bother You) and Letitia Wright (Black Panther).

This year’s BAFTA ceremony will be held on February 10 at London’s Royal Albert Hall, with Joanna Lumley serving as a host.
