Take That to Perform ‘Anora’ Hit at BAFTA Awards, Jeff Goldblum to Play Piano for In Memoriam


British boyband Take That and Wicked‘s Jeff Goldblum are set to perform live at this year’s BAFTA Film Awards.

Take That, comprising of Gary Barlow, Howard Donald and Mark Owen, will take to the stage on Sunday, Feb. 16 and perform their number one single “Greatest Day”, which famously opened Sean Baker’s nominated hit Anora.

Goldblum, meanwhile, star of Wicked, will perform on the piano during the In Memoriam section of the ceremony. What audiences might not know about the Hollywood icon is that when not acting, Goldblum has a dedicated following of his jazz band, the Mildred Snitzer Orchestra. Their upcoming album, “Still Blooming,” is scheduled to be released on Apr. 25.

Vatican drama Conclave, based on the novel by Robert Harris, leads the way with 12 BAFTA nominations — ahead of Emilia Pérez‘s 11 and The Brutalist‘s nine.

It is the most genre-diverse year ever for the BAFTA Film Awards as horror movies Heretic and The Substance, musical (or music-inspired) films such as Wicked and A Complete Unknown, historical epics like Steve McQueen’s Blitz and big-budget action fare like Dune: Part Two and Gladiator II all earned nominations.

The 2025 EE BAFTA Film Awards, hosted by David Tennant, will take place on Sunday, Feb. 16, 2025, at the Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall in London.

The awards will be broadcast on BBC One and iPlayer in the U.K., and stream on BritBox International in North America. It will be available on demand on BritBox in the Nordics and Australia, and on a number of other broadcasters internationally.
