The Power Of The Dog, Dune lead the 2022 BAFTA nominations

Award season is in full swing, and with that comes the nominations for the BAFTA Film Awards. This year Denis Villeneuve’s Dune leads the nominations with 11, sweeping the technical categories.

Jane Campion’s The Power Of The Dog follows close behind with 8 nominations, primarily in directing and acting categories. Benedict Cumberbatch, Kodi Smit-McPhee, and have all earned nominations for their acting in the slow-burn Western. Smit-McPhee also received a nomination in the public-voted Rising Star Award.

Other films that received multiple nominations include Kenneth Branagh’s coming-of-age drama Belfast, which has received six noms. Daniel Craig’s final performance as Bond in No Time to Die earned five nods, alongside Paul Thomas Anderson’s Licorice Pizza, and Steven Spielberg’s West Side Story.

While Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Lost Daughter snagged a few nominations, with Jessie Buckley earning one for her supporting performance, Olivia Colman did not receive a nomination in the main acting category. Another notable snub is Pablo Larraín’s Spencer, as it appears the Brits were not too impressed with Kristen Stewart’s performance as Lady Di.

This year’s list of first-time nominees includes Will Smith, as he earns a nod for his role as Venus and Serena Williams’ father in King Richard. Renate Reinsve has also received her first nomination for her debut leading performance as Julie in the Swedish feature The Worst Person In The World. Alana Haim has also been nominated for her debut acting appearance in PTA’s Licorice Pizza.
