Prince William, the Prince of Wales and president of the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA), is confirmed to attend the BAFTA film awards in London, marking his first high-profile royal engagement since Kate Middleton's surgery. The event, set to celebrate the biggest films and talent of the past year, has generated significant buzz with 'Oppenheimer' and 'Anatomy of a Fall' predicted as top winners. 'Oppenheimer', in particular, has been a defining narrative in this year's film awards season, leading with 13 nominations at the upcoming 96th Oscars. The BAFTA awards, often seen as a precursor to the Oscars, will also feature stars like Robert Downey Jr., who has been praised by director Christopher Nolan for his role in 'Oppenheimer'. The ceremony is highly anticipated, with live coverage from the red carpet in London.
