Actor Richard E Grant and TV presenter Alison Hammond have been unveiled as the hosts of the 2023 British Academy Film Awards - the BAFTAs.
Grant, who was nominated for an Oscar for his role in Can You Ever Forgive Me?, will host the 76th annual film awards ceremony at the Southbank Centre's Royal Festival Hall in London in February.
The 65-year-old said: "I feel hugely privileged to be hosting the EE BAFTAs for the first time and the opportunity to celebrate the very best of the extraordinary range of this year's films."
He first rose to prominence by playing a hapless drunk actor in Withnail and I in 1987 and has had parts in Gosford Park, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, and Downton Abbey.
Hammond is hosting BAFTA Studio, an immersive and access-all-areas experience, as part of the BBC One show.
The 47-year-old TV personality, who presents ITV's This Morning with Dermot O'Leary and has competed on Strictly Come Dancing, said: "I'm so excited to be hosting at this year's EE BAFTA Film Awards with THE Richard E Grant.
"We're going to have a lot of fun bringing the glitz and glam of backstage to everyone watching at home around the world.
"From hanging out with the stars to celebrating the biggest night for cinema, and joining the discussions with film fans, get ready for good vibes only."
For the first time, the ceremony will include a live broadcast to reveal the final four category winners after previously being recorded and then broadcast on the same day.
The Netflix anti-war epic All Quiet on the Western Front has been longlisted in 15 categories.
The black comedy-drama The Banshees of Inisherin, starring Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson, is close behind with 14 nods.
The quirky science-fiction thriller Everything Everywhere All at Once and Baz Luhrmann's biopic of Elvis are both longlisted in 12 categories.
The shortlist of nominations will be unveiled this Thursday at 12pm in a livestream by actors Hayley Atwell, best known for playing Agent Peggy Carter in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and Ted Lasso's Toheeb Jimoh.
The EE Rising Star nominations will be announced on Tuesday.
The BAFTAs will be broadcast on BBC One on Sunday 19 February.
