The decision to add an initial round was introduced last year, after a major overhaul aimed at addressing the lack of diversity in recent appointments.
For the first time in its history, the British Academy launched longlists in all categories for its film awards.
The final nomination lists will be announced on March 9, with the ceremony – postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic – now scheduled for April 11.
The decision to publish long lists of nominations was taken as part of a major overhaul of the BAFTA voting procedures announced last year, with the aim of addressing the lack of diversity in BAFTA film awards. Within about 120 comprehensive changes, a new long list start round was introduced, resulting in three rounds of voting. The voting of the first round, which took place from 12 to 26 January, produced the longlists in all the announced categories.
“The longlists announced today reflect some of the main changes that we have already started to implement as part of our ongoing review,” said BAFTA film committee chairman Marc Samuelson.
“A big thank you to our members for embracing these changes so positively and quickly, especially during this challenging time. I hope today’s lists show that we remain committed to change in all aspects of BAFTA awards on an ongoing basis.”
