They showcase the very best of storytelling and its ability to engage, entertain and provoke debate. This year's nominated films are full of bold storytelling and exquisite craft. And the breadth of narrative, genres and styles is spellbinding. Whether newcomers or veterans, I hope our first-time nominees enjoy this much deserved spotlight, and I look forward to welcoming them and all our returning nominees to London. As the UK's leading arts charity and academy, it's a real privilege to showcase this year's brilliant films and the talent in the 79th EE BAFTA Film Awards, which will be broadcast on BBC, BBC iPlayer, and across the world on 22 February."

Sara Putt, Chair of BAFTA, added: "Across the 2026 EE BAFTA Film Awards nominations it is thrilling to see British indie films and debuts in the company of blockbusters that have taken the world by storm. It's an exceptional year for bold, original storytelling. Behind these films are thousands of hard-working crews who have worked tirelessly to bring them to life - the quality and craftsmanship on display is filmmaking at its best. We hope the public enjoy watching these films as much as our 8300 BAFTA film voters have."
