As the most prominent European voting group, the British Academy of Film and Television (best known as the BAFTAs) is celebrating its 2022 edition of the ceremony back at London’s Royal Albert Hall after last year’s partially online showcase. One of the few major associations to select their awards with the input of a limited jury, the BAFTAs always strive to make an impact by honoring diverse and esteemed artists from the best in global film while spotlighting British contenders and bringing them to the forefront of the race. In this 75th edition of the BAFTAs, the categories have proved to be as jam-packed and unpredictable as ever.
Tallying up the final results from the 2022 BAFTAs, Dune swept by earning 5 awards out of its 11 nominations. The Power of the Dog further cemented itself as a top contender this season by winning both Best Film and Best Director in Jane Campion. Also, CODA made some leaps in the race with another Supporting Actor win for Troy Kotsur and unexpectedly nabbing Best Adapted Screenplay. Other notable BAFTA achievements include Best original Screenplay for Licorice Pizza, Best Editing for No Time To Die, and Best Actress for Joanna Scanlan for her turnout in After Love.
Falling in line with previous years, 19 out of the overall 24 acting slots were filled by first-time nominees, making this a special night for more big winners like Ariana Debose and Will Smith. Read on to find out just how many more surprises (and possible snubs) took place in the final winners for the 2022 BAFTAs.
