The BAFTA 2020 nominations have been announced, with Joker leading the pack with 11 nominations. In a close joint-second place are The Irishman and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, with 10 each.

Golden Globe winner 1917 also scooped nine nominations, while Jojo Rabbit – Taika Waititi's "hate satire" about an imaginary Hitler – managed six nominations. Little Women, Marriage Story, and (to some surprise) The Two Popes all picked up five nominations.

Already, the nominations list has caused controversy among British critics on Twitter, with many pointing out that the acting categories are dominated by all-white nominees despite Golden Globe nominees Awkwafina, Jennifer Lopez, Eddie Murphy, and Cynthia Erivo all being potentially in the running. There's also been contention around the directing category, which once again was all-male – Joanna Hogg (The Souvenir), Greta Gerwig (Little Women), and Marielle Heller (A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood) all missed out on the category.
