The British Academy's annual bash in L.A. will not take place this year.
, the British Academy — much like in 2020 — said it would instead focus on its various initiatives.
“BAFTA Britannia awards will be a key part of our plans for 2022,” it said. “For the rest of this year we are continuing to focus on our year-round learning and talent programs, which include scholarships, the GSA BAFTA Student Awards and Breakthrough USA – which we will announce the new cohort for later in the year.”
The last time the Britannia Awards was held in 2018, Jane Fonda made history by accepting her Stanley Kubrick Award for excellence in film via video link while being arrested in Washington DC on a climate change protest. Other winners on the night included Jordan Peele, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Steve Coogan, Norman Lear and Jackie Chan.
Billed as a “bridge between The Hollywood and British production and entertainment business communities,” the Britannia Awards were first established in 1989, with the first decade seeing one honorary awards presented to an individual.
