What has driven the diverse nominations list?
In the past year, BAFTA undertook a wide-ranging review, signalling the beginning of a significant cultural shift within the organisation.
The changes introduced for the Film Awards are the first phase in an ongoing process of levelling the playing field for all entered films.

Hide AdChair of BAFTA Krishnendu Majumdar said: “This year’s nominations showcase and celebrate the remarkable range of performances and nominees behind the camera from 50 films and we’re delighted to recognise such high-quality work.
“We are also delighted to see the strength of British film shine through in all categories.
“After last year’s nominations, we started the BAFTA Review process with the intention of levelling the playing field and introduced a range of measures to ensure that all entered films were seen by our members and judged on merit.

When are the 2021 BAFTAs?
In 2021, the BAFTAs will take place across the weekend of 10-11 April without a live audience.
Instead, this year’s awards will be split into two ceremonies - one on each day - which will be broadcast virtually from London's Royal Albert Hall.
