Aussie actress Rebel Wilson has been set as the host of the 2022 BAFTA Film Awards, which are taking place in person on March 13, 2022.
The ceremony, staged at London’s Royal Albert Hall, will be broadcast on BBC One and iPlayer.
Wilson takes over the reins from Edith Bowman and Dermot O’Leary, who hosted last year’s semi-virtual edition.
The actress previously brought down the BAFTA house in 2020 with this speech:
BAFTA nominations will be unveiled on February 3. The longlists were published this week.
Yesterday, the Critics’ Choice Awards confirmed that due to TV scheduling they will be moving to the same date as BAFTA, a potentially thorny issue for talent who are nominated at both awards shows.
“I am very honoured to be hosting the Ee British Academy Film Awards in March, where Covid will no longer exist because it will clearly have been canceled by then. It’s going to be so much fun!
