The last few years have been a relatively nightmarish time for the Film and TV industry, with cinemas closed for long periods of time COVID delaying productions, despite this there have been some amazing releases whether they have been available on-demand or at the cinema.
The BAFTA‘s usually give a good indication of who is in the running for an Oscar, which follows just two weeks after the BAFTA’s.
However, there may be a discrepancy with that this year, as Spiderman: No way Home was blocked from entering the BAFTA’s after not meeting the ‘criteria’, in this case, the particular reason being Sony’s refusal to allow the film to be uploaded the BAFTA’s platform due to piracy issues.
The Films, Actors and Actresses in the Race for this Year’s Bafta have been announced ahead of the ceremony that takes place on the 13th March 2022; and here is the list of the nominees.
