Back in October, Total Film joined up with Orange and BAFTA for The Orange Wednesdays Rising Star Award, designed to recognise a fresh face destined for fame, fortune and critical plaudits.

Fellow jurors included Simon Pegg, Sienna Miller and David Yates, and now, after two long months of debating and deliberating, the shortlist of five nominees can be announced:

Adam Deacon:

Hackney-born Adam rose to fame in Noel Clarke’s Kidulthood , before reprising the role in the follow-up Adulthood and again working with Clarke in 4.3.2.1 . Adam then went on to make his own mark on the film industry by co-writing, directing and starring in Brit comedy Anuvahood .

Chris Hemsworth:

Australian actor Chris became an overnight success after landing the title role in film version of the Marvel comic Thor and he will reprise the role in The Avengers this year. Chris is next starring in Snow White And The Huntsman opposite Kristen Stewart and Charlize Theron and will play Formula One driver James Hunt in Ron Howard’s Rush .

Chris O’Dowd:

Eddie Redmayne:

After receiving much critical acclaim on the West End and Broadway stage, Eddie burst onto the film scene in My Week With Marilyn alongside Michelle Williams, Dame Judi Dench and Kenneth Branagh. He recently finished filming Birdsong , the BBC adaptation of the acclaimed novel by Sebastian Faulks, and will soon be starring in the film version of the musical Les Miserables .

Tom Hiddleston:

RADA graduate Tom broke onto the big screen earlier this year in Kenneth Branagh's Thor . Tom’s recent projects include Woody Allen’s film Midnight In Paris , Steven Spielberg’s War Horse , and The Deep Blue Sea opposite Rachel Weisz. Tom will be seen playing the big bad in The Avengers in May 2012.

Win VIP tickets to the BAFTAs!

Time to dust off your Sunday best…

The Orange BAFTAs is the highlight of the UK film calendar, the world’s glitterati gathering at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, London, to celebrate the very best of a year in cinema.

You’ve seen it on TV – why not now see it for real?

Total Film has joined forces with Orange and BAFTA to offer one lucky competition winner the chance to win a pair of VIP tickets to the awards ceremony, hosted by Stephen Fry.

As well as two tickets to the UK’s hottest show (including access to the red carpet viewing platform to watch all the stars arrive), the winner will also receive UK travel to and from London, one night’s stay at a swanky central London hotel, and a black tie dinner for two in a London restaurant.

The Orange BAFTA ceremony is taking place on the evening of Sunday, 12 February, 2012.
