David Tennant to Host the 2025 EE BAFTA Film Awards

David Tennant is set to return as the host for the 2025 EE BAFTA Film Awards following his successful debut at this year’s ceremony. The Doctor Who star will lead the prestigious event on Sunday, February 16, at the Royal Festival Hall in London, which will be broadcast live on BBC One and iPlayer. The ceremony will also be available to viewers in the US and Australia on Britbox, with additional international broadcast details to follow.

The 2024 ceremony attracted over 3.8 million viewers, marking a third consecutive year of rising ratings. The awards also garnered more than 20 million video views across BAFTA’s social media platforms.

Jane Millichip, CEO of BAFTA, expressed excitement over Tennant’s return, saying, “We couldn’t be happier that David Tennant is returning to host the EE BAFTA Film Awards in 2025. He’s a joy to work with, and his performance this year was simply outstanding—warm, witty, and mischievous.”

This year’s awards kicked off with a surprise reunion from Staged, featuring Tennant and Michael Sheen in a hilarious sketch. The sketch also included appearances from Georgia Tennant, Stanley Tucci, Himesh Patel, Tom Hiddleston, and Dame Judi Dench. Fans are hoping for another surprise next year, especially as there are no current plans for more Staged episodes.

The 2025 ceremony will introduce a new Children’s & Family Film category, the first new award in five years, along with changes to the voting and eligibility systems. The longlists for the 2025 BAFTAs will be announced on January 3, followed by the nominations on January 15. The nominees for the 2025 EE Rising Star Award will be revealed on January 7.

The EE BAFTA Film Awards will be held on February 16, 2025, and broadcast on BBC One and iPlayer.
