BAFTA Film Awards 2021: The full list of nominations

The British Academy of Film and Television Arts has announced 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 last year when there were no women up for best director or best film.

There is also a much more diverse list of nominees in the main acting categories, following a diversity push following criticism of 2020’s all-white performer shortlists.

Here are all of this year’s BAFTA nominees.
