The British Academy of Film and Television Arts announced the nominations for the EE British Academy Film Awards in 2020 lead by Joker with 11 nominations.

A total of 39 feature films received nominations including five nominations for Marriage Story and The Two Popes, along with four nominations for For Sama, and Parasite.

BAFTA received immediate criticism on social media including on Twitter, where the #BaftasSoWhite hashtag trending as the nominations were being announced, because none of the four acting categories – Leading Actor, Leading Actress, Supporting Actor, Supporting Actress – included people of color.

The nominees for the EE Rising Star Award which were announced previously are Awkwafina, Jack Lowden, Kaitlyn Dever, Kelvin Harrison Jr, and Micheal Ward

The EE British Academy Film Awards takes place on Sunday February 2 at the Royal Albert Hall, London.
