The 77th British Academy Film Awards will be held today and a host of stars from the entertainment industry are set to hit the red carpet before the prestigious event.
The nominees were announced on January 5, ahead of the awards ceremony, which will be hosted by David Tennant.
Our very own Barry Keoghan, Paul Mescal and Cillian Murphy are some of the nominees in some of the major categories.
The ceremony is scheduled to take place at the Royal Festival Hall in London’s Southbank Centre.
The show will be broadcast on BBC One starting at 7pm.
Jane Millichip, CEO of BAFTA, said about the Scottish actor, who’s hosting the event: “He is deservedly beloved by British and international audiences, alike.”
“His warmth, charm and mischievous wit will make it a must-watch show next month for our guests at the Royal Festival Hall and the millions of people watching at home.”
