While there are \u201cno plans<\/a>\u201d for Fourteen to return to the Whoniverse, Tennant will be returning to our screens in this exciting new presenting capacity.<\/p>\n Aside from Doctor Who, Tennant is known for his starring roles in Prime Video\u2019s Good Omens<\/a>, Broadchurch and in theatre productions of Much Ado About Nothing, Richard II, Hamlet, and, currently, Macbeth.<\/p>\n This marks the first time the Scottish actor has presented the inaugural honours event and commenting on the announcement of the news, Tennant said: <\/b>\u201cI am delighted to have been asked to host the EE BAFTA Film Awards and help celebrate the very best of this year\u2019s films and the many brilliant people who bring them to life.\u201d<\/p> More recently, Tennant became the talk of last year\u2019s BAFTA TV Awards<\/a> when he and Catherine Tate jointly presented the award for Features.<\/p>\n During the preamble before the presentation, fans of Tennant were shocked to learn that the acclaimed actor has never received a BAFTA nomination<\/a>.<\/p>\n While Tennant has been nominated for BAFTA Scotland and Wales, he has not received a nomination from the main BAFTAs. Well, while this isn\u2019t a nomination, fans of the actor will undoubtedly be excited about his new BAFTA news.<\/p>\n Jane Millichip, CEO of BAFTA, also said: \u201cWe are over the moon that David Tennant will be our host for the 2024 EE BAFTA Film Awards. He is deservedly beloved by British and international audiences, alike.<\/p>\n \u201cHis warmth, charm and mischievous wit will make it a must-watch show next month for our guests at the Royal Festival Hall and the millions of people watching at home.<\/p>\n \u201cThe EE BAFTA Film Awards recognise exceptional films and the talented people who make them.
