Rosamund Pike: I'd love it if Saltburn won a BAFTA

Saltburn star Rosamund Pike said she would love it if the film scored recognition at this year’s Bafta ceremony as “the film is so British, and sometimes the Brits are not good at celebrating their own”.

Pike was among the British and Irish stars attending the annual Bafta Tea Party in Los Angeles, alongside Oppenheimer’s Emily Blunt and Cillian Murphy, Carey Mulligan from Maestro, Succession’s Brian Cox and Bella Ramsey from The Last Of Us.

The event, which took place at The Maybourne Beverly Hills, also welcomed a host of other Hollywood stars, including Barbie’s Greta Gerwig, Willem Dafoe and Mark Ruffalo from Poor Things, May December actress Julianne Moore, and The Holdovers actor Paul Giamatti.

During the event, Pike spoke about “smashing up” her face in a skiing accident just days before the Golden Globes.

“I’m fine, it was just a very foolish thing to do,” she told the PA news agency.
