The front-runners are completed by All of Us Stranger (6) and Barbie and Saltburn (5 each).
In the Best Director category, four of the six are first-time Director nominees: Jonathan Glazer (The Zone of Interest), Andrew Haigh (All of Us Strangers), Alexander Payne (The Holdovers), and Justine Triet (Anatomy of a Fall). None of the Director nominees are previous winners in this category.

Three directors in the 2023-4 BAFTA Breakthrough cohort are nominated in addition to Vivian Oparah. Raine Allen-Miller (Rye Lane) and Charlotte Regan (Scrapper) in Outstanding British Film, and Ella Glendining (Is Anybody Out There?) in Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer.
The nominees for the EE Rising Star Award are Phoebe Dynevor, Ayo Edebiri, Jacob Elordi, Mia McKenna-Bruce, and Sophie Wilde. It is the only award voted for by the British public.
The success of Poor Things and All of Us Strangers means that Disney & Searchlight is the distributor with the most nominations (22), but Apple is leading the streamers, with 14 nominations (including Killers of the Flower Moon, Napoleon and Still: A Michael J Fox Movie) placing it notably ahead of Netflix, which has 12 nominations (including Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget, Maestro, Rustin, Society of the Snow, Wham! and American Symphony).
