BAFTA Awards 2020 Nominations Released, Lack of Diversity Addressed as 'Infuriating'

The British Academy of Film and Television Arts has announced the nominations for the 2020 awards!

Joker leads the pack with 11 total nominations, with The Irishman and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood having 10 each.

The lack of diversity in the nominations has been noted by BAFTA executives.

“Clearly everybody knows that everybody in the four acting groups of nominees are white, it’s infuriating, we can’t make the industry do something, all we can do is encourage and push and inspire and try to help people coming in at the bottom end,” Marc Samuelson, chairman of BAFTA’s film committee, said in a statement.

The show is set to air on February 2 live from London.

Michelle Rodriguez Apologizes for Her Liam Neeson Comments

Michelle Rodriguez arrives for the 2019 EE British Academy Film Awards on Sunday (February 10) at Royal Albert Hall in London, England.

Earlier in the week, Michelle was embroiled in controversy when she defended Liam Neeson. Michelle co-starred with Liam in Widows, and defended him by saying he’s not a racist after his big controversy.

Michelle issued a response to her controversial comments, writing, “To my friends and colleagues and my fans and community: I want to deeply apologize for my recent choice of words, and poor use of example. In a pressure-filled situation, I defended a friend in the wrong way. I now realize how insensitive it was, and I had no intention of invoking such a terrible historical comparison. I have learned from this, and will grow from it.”

FYI: Michelle is wearing Jenny Packham.
