Edebiri was one of the busiest young talents in Hollywood this past year, starring in about a dozen projects, including films Theater Camp and Bottoms and the TV series The Bear, for which she just won her first Golden Globe.

Euphoria actor Jacob Elordi also had a busy 2023 and he’s fresh off starring in Sofia Coppola’s Priscilla and Emerald Fennell’s Saltburn. The list of contenders for the Rising Star Award will also include Phoebe Dynevor (Bridgerton), Sophie Wilde (Talk to Me), and Mia McKenna-Bruce (How to Have S-x).

BAFTA CEO Jane Millichip said that “these remarkable individuals represent what BAFTA and the EE Rising Star Award stand for as the future of the film industry, embodying innovation, dedication, and a commitment to storytelling that captivates audiences worldwide.”

The British Academy Film Awards nomination will be unveiled on January 18, one month ahead of the award ceremony on February 18, hosted by David Tennant.

Elordi is replacing Andrew Garfield, who decided to leave the project due to scheduling conflicts after the production was pushed in the face of dual strikes in Hollywood last year. He joins Golden Globe winner Oscar Isaac, who’ll lead the project in the role of Victor Frankenstein, alongside Pearl’s Mia Goth and the two-time Oscar winner Christoph Waltz.

The supporting cast will also include Felix Kammerer (All Quiet on the Western Front), Lars Mikkelsen (The Witcher), David Bradley (Game of Thrones), and Christian Convery (Sweet Tooth).

Del Toro’s Frankenstein adaptation marks the visionary director’s latest collaboration with Netflix after this streaming giant distributed his Oscar-winning animated film Pinocchio.

2023 has been a career-changing year for Elordi, who played key roles in Emerald Fennell’s psychological thriller Saltburn and Sofia Coppola’s biopic Priscilla. He’s currently attached to dramas On Swift Horses and Oh, Canada, in addition to being set to return as Nate Jacobs in the third season of HBO’s hit teen series Euphoria.

Saltburn follows Oliver Quick (Keoghan), who’s struggling to find his footing at Oxford University before meeting his charming classmate, Felix Catton (Elordi). Their lives become even more intertwined after Felix invites Oliver to spend the summer at his aristocratic family’s sprawling estate Saltburn.

In addition to Keoghan and Elordi in the lead roles, Saltburn also stars Rosamund Pike, Richard E. Grant, Alison Oliver, Archie Madekwe, Carey Mulligan, Paul Rhys, Lolly Adefope, Ewan Mitchell, and Reece Shearsmith.

Saltburn hails from the Promising Young Woman director Emerald Fennell, and it was met with positive reception following its world premiere at the Telluride Film Festival on August 31. It also served as the opening film of the BFI London Film Festival earlier this month.

Saltburn will premiere in both the United Kingdom and the United States on November 17. It will initially only be released in limited theatres in the US, before expanding wide on November 22.

Francesca Orsi, executive vice president of HBO Programming, broke the news in an official statement and thanked the creator Sam Levinson for building an incredible world with an extraordinary cast.

“We are so grateful that he chose HBO as the home for this groundbreaking series. We look forward to following these complex characters as their journeys continue through the challenging world they inhabit,” said Orsi.

Euphoria caused quite a stir since it premiered on HBO and already attracted over 5.5 million viewers across HBO’s platforms. It offers an unfiltered look at the lives of a group of teens grappling with serious issues and stars some of Hollywood’s most promising young actors, including Zendaya, Maude Apatow, Jacob Elordi, Barbie Ferreira, Hunter Schafer, and Sydney Sweeney.
