British actor Daniel Kaluuya has no doubt been waiting his whole life to win an award, but you wouldn’t know it from his winner’s speech.
In the night’s most natural and heartwarming speech, the 28-year-old forgot his words and was given the dreaded countdown whilst collecting his Bafta Rising Star award for his role in Get Out, but we wouldn’t have it any other way.
The actor beat out competition from Timothée Chalamet Florence Pugh, Josh O’Connor and Tessa Thompson in the category, which is the only award voted for by the public.
