The 77th British Academy Film Awards, hosted by David Tennant, took place at London’s Royal Festival Hall on Sunday, February 18th – and stars from some of the biggest movies of the last year, from Barbie to Oppenheimer, were in attendance. Emily Blunt joined Oppenheimer co-stars Cillian Murphy and Florence Pugh at the ceremony, dressed in a mesmerizing gold Elie Saab gown that instantly made her top of the best dressed list.
Emily was also nominated for a ‘Best Supporting Actress’ award for her role as Kitty Oppenheimer. Her category was an extremely tough one, as she faced competition from Danielle Brooks for The Color Purple, Claire Foy for All of Us Strangers, Sandra Hüller for The Zone of Interest, Rosamund Pike for Saltburn, and Da’Vine Joy Randolph for The Holdovers, with Randolph ultimately winning the award. However, Oppenheimer took home a super-impressive seven awards, including ‘Best Film,’ ‘Best Director’ and ‘Best Leading Actor’ for Cillian Murphy. And Emily’s red carpet look was one of the biggest red-carpet winners for us!
