EE is delighted to announce Mia McKenna-Bruce as the winner of the EE Rising Star Award for 2024.
The EE Rising Star Award is the only award presented at the EE BAFTA Film Awards that is determined by a public vote. Running since 2005, the award honours an emerging actor or actress who has demonstrated exceptional talent and ambition and has begun to capture the imagination of the British public.
Mia McKenna-Bruce, 2024 EE Rising Star Award Winner, said: “Thank you to everyone who voted, thank you to Molly Manning Walker and everyone who worked on How to Have Sex. Thank you BAFTA, thank you EE, I’m over the moon. Ayo, Phoebe, Sophie, Jacob—it’s an honour to have been nominated alongside you. Thank you.”
Running since 2005, with past winners including Tom Holland and Letitia Wright, it is the only prize at the EE BAFTA Film Awards chosen by the public. The award honours an emerging actor or actress who has demonstrated exceptional talent and ambition and has begun to capture the imagination of the British public, with many former winners going on to become huge household names.
