BAFTA Reveals Long List Nominees For 2022 Line-Up

The British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) has finally released its long list of nominees on Wednesday morning, along with the Screen Actors Guild Awards.

Fans were excited to see “Belfast,” “House of Gucci,” and “West Side Story” leading in films after the first round of votes. However, fans were disappointed to see that “Spider-Man: No Way Home” would not be included after “failing to meet eligibility criteria.” The film was seeking nominations for best picture and best special effects.

Now that the long list has been announced, round two of voting will take place from January 14 to January 27. Those nominations will be announced on February 3. From there, a third round of voting will determine the winners. That voting window will be from February 9 to March 8.

The BAFTA Awards will take place in London on March 13. Take a look at the nominees below and see if your favorites made the cut!
