Apple TV+ SVOD Hosted First BAFTA Brunch Ahead of Academy Awards
February 22, 2023
Apple TV+ hosted its first-ever BAFTA brunch ahead of the 76th British Academy Film Awards. The Feb. 19 event in London featured stars and content creators behind the streamer’s BAFTA Award winning The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse, which is nominated for an upcoming Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film, and upcoming Apple Originals “Ted Lasso,” “Tetris,” “Napoleon,” “Bad Sisters,” “Slow Horses,” “Trying,” “Surface,” “Servant” and “Masters of the Air,” among others.
Apple TV+ became the first subscription streaming video service to offer global service at launch (11 days ahead of Disney+ on Nov. 1, 2019), and touts itself as premiering more original content and receiving more industry awards faster than any other streaming service since then.
To date, Apple original movies, documentaries and series have earned 323 wins and 1,398 award nominations, including multi-Emmy Award-winning comedy “Ted Lasso” and the previous year’s Oscar Best Picture winner CODA.
