There are 45 films in total up for awards this year, with Eddie Redmayne, Viola Davis, Cate Blanchett and Colin Farrell all up for acting awards.
Cate Blanchett and Austin Butler are frontrunners for the Best Actor and Best Actress gongs, with Michelle Yeoh and Brendan Fraser also tipped to win.
In terms of those that missed out, it was a shock that James Cameron wasn’t nominated for Best Director for the second Avatar film, even though it was critically panned by many, including our reviewer.
As for the Rising Star award, Sheila Atim of The Woman King is a favourite, as is Sex Education’s Aimee Loud Wood who played opposite Bill Nighy in one of last year’s best releases, Living.
National treasure Richard E Grant will present this year’s awards after being nominated in 2019 for his role in Can You Ever Forgive Me opposite Melissa McCarthy.
