BAFTA have just announced the list of people who will be attending the 2012 BAFTA Awards this Sunday and it’s rather an impressive list. I’ve placed the full press release below but in a nutshell, those attending include: Receiving Awards in alphabetical order: Adam Deacon, Bérénice Bejo, Brad Pitt, Chris Hemsworth, Eddie Redmayne, Gary Oldman, [...]
This is rather fantastic news and massive kudos to Orange to have the bottle to make this happen but we’ve just received a press release alerting us to the fact that Miss Piggy will be on the red carpet at the 2012 BAFTA Awards to interview the stars as they walk down the carpet. There [...]
The lovely people at BAFTA have given us the honour of debuting these five rather brilliant brochure covers for the upcoming awards next Sunday 12th February. The five covers have been designed by Eda Akaltun & StudioSmall (heartagency.com & studiosmall.com) and depict the five movies that have been nominated in the Best Film category at [...]
We’re used to the Razzie Awards taking place just before the Oscars paying tribute to the worst movies of the past 12 months but the organisers this year have moved the coveted award ceremony to April Fools’ Day, April 1st. Previous winners include Sandra Bullock for the truly 2010 dreadful movie, All About Steve which [...]
This morning the British Academy of Film and Television Arts announced their shortlist of nominees for the forthcoming 2012 BAFTA awards. The longlist was announced a couple of weeks ago and caused the usual controversy with a few omissions standing out however there was an overall sense that 2011 was a good year for the [...]
This morning, BAFTA HQ was the place to be as the final five were announced for the 2012 Orange BAFTA Rising Star Award. A panel of 13 people including Simon Pegg, Sienna Miller and Harry Potter Director David Yates scoured the globe for those rising stars and came up with list of 8 including Adam [...]
I’ve just done a post for the new trailer to the Oscars but I’d much rather write about something much closer to home when it comes to awards ceremonies and that is the 2012 BAFTA awards. The organisation has just released the longlist which will then be whittled down again to bring five nominations into [...]
The Producers Guild of America has announced the nominees for their 2012 film and TV awards. The Producers Guild Awards (PGA) nominees include the obvious choices such as The Artist, The Descendants, and Hugo, but also some films that have not often been mentioned in the build-up to the Oscars, including Moneyball, The Help, The Ides of March. Among the TV nominees, as [...]
I think this will most likely be the final post for the British Independent Film Awards for this year but I’d like to finish off with this amazing set of images courtesy of brilliant photographers Idil Sukan and Richard Young who were there snapping away all last night at the awards ceremony. We had an absolutely amazing [...]
Several of our writers at HeyUGuys, including our two editors, have young children, and therefore a legitimate excuse to watch Children’s TV. I, on the other hand, don’t. On the other hand, I am barely employed (and barely employable), so am far better versed in the ins-and-outs of children’s TV than I have any right [...]
I rather like this news, so much so that I decided to do a post on it. We’re big fans of all things Simon Pegg here at HeyUGuys and we just got the news through that the man himself will be joining Sienna Miller as jurors on the 2012 BAFTA Awards to judge the Orange [...]
We’ve just been sent the winners list for The BFI London Film Festival 2011 and massive congrats to We Need to Talk About Kevin director Lynne Ramsay and all her cast and crew for winning the award. I’ll just make this post about the winners but I’m sure we’ll do a reaction post imminently. So [...]
HeyUGuys were at the Jameson Empire Awards last Sunday and during the course of the evening we were tweeting from the red carpet, live blogging the awards, and interviewing the winners and presenters as soon as they got off stage. We also managed to carry out quite a few interviews with guests on their way [...]
Down in the HUG Bunker, we’re pretty big fans of flame-haired screenwriter Jane Goldman, so it was a pleasant surprise to find out that she’s pretty fond of us too! Not only did she tell us how much she liked the site, but she also let us know the progress of Kick-Ass 2, what she [...]
By now, you’ve hopefully caught up with our coverage of the Jameson Empire Awards. If not, check them out here. We’ve still got loads of videos from our red carpet interviews coming up, including Dexter Fletcher and Will Poulter talking about their next project, Wild Bill, which with a cast that includes Olivia Williams, Marc [...]
We’ll be posting last night’s interviews that we took from the red carpet at the Jameson Empire Awards today and tomorrow. If you haven’t watched them yet, you can keep track here. This time round we’ve got Gareth Edwards, the man responsible for the phenomenal Monsters, and who will shortly be bringing Godzilla back to [...]
While we were on the red carpet for the Jameson Empire Awards, we had a chance to talk to Son of Rambow and Narnia star, Will Poulter, who seemed to be competing with Gareth Edwards and Tom Felton for the title of nicest man in the British film industry. During the conversation, he spoke briefly [...]
The Empire Awards turned sweet sixteen last night and the Grosvenor House Hotel was the venue once again to celebrate, drink, clap your palms numb and drink some more in a toast to the best in film. Jameson were on hand again to sponsor and thus sobriety quickly beat a hasty retreat and the awards [...]
This evening, the Grosvenor House Hotel played host to the 2011 Empire / Jameson Awards ceremony. These awards are always great as they’re voted for by the readers of the biggest Movie Magazine in the world (that would be Empire) and you never quite know who may turn up to the awards and today we [...]
When I had the idea to begin HeyUGuys just under two and a half years ago, I never in my wildest dream ever thought that it would lead me to an event like the one I attended yesterday. That event was the 2011 BAFTA Awards followed by the BAFTA meal and after-party. Grey Goose were [...]
