BAFTA Awards 2021: Here are full list of nominees
The British Academy of Film and Television Arts has declared its 2021 Film Awards shortlist, with movies Nomadland and Rocks leading the way with seven nominations each.
For the first time in BAFTA history four women have made it into the best director category – in sharp contrast to a year ago when there were no women up for best director or best film.
There is additionally a significantly more different list of nominees in the primary acting categories, following a diversity push following criticism of 2020’s all-white performer shortlists.
Here are the entirety of the current year’s BAFTA nominees:
