David Tennant Says ‘Villain’ Donald Trump’s Name Three Times in BAFTAs Monologue: ‘It’s Like Beetlejuice — I’ve Summoned Him’
David Tennant took to the podium as the BAFTA Film Awards host for a second time on Sunday night -- and called out U.S. President Donald Trump.
The “Doctor Who” star, who also hosted last year’s ceremony, opened with a performance of the Proclaimers’ hit “I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles)” getting members of the audience — including James McAvoy, Anna Kendrick and Colman Domingo join in. Alongside Tennant as host, the 2025 BAFTAs featured performances from Take That, singing “Greatest Day” from the opening scene of “Anora,” and Jeff Goldblum, who played the piano during the in memoriam section. Further down, Brady Corbet’s American epic “The Brutalist” landed nine nominations, followed by seven for “Anora,” “Dune: Part Two” and “Wicked” and six for “A Complete Unknown” and low-budget Irish-language biopic “Kneecap.”
