Bohemian Rhapsody director Bryan Singer BAFTA nomination SUSPENDED

As a result, Singer was fired and Elton John biopic Rocketman director Dexter Fletcher stepped in to finish the movie.

But aside from this, Singer has been accused of sexually abusing underage boys, according to an article in The Atlantic.

The filmmaker strongly denies all allegations against him, calling it a “homophobic smear”.

And now BAFTA has announced that Singer’s Best British Film nomination has been suspended.

Malek added: “I’ve sat here and talked about how everyone deserves a voice and anyone who wants to talk about what happened with Bryan deserves to have their voice heard.

“In my situation with Bryan, it was not pleasant, not at all.

“And that’s about what I can say about it at this point.”

The 72nd BAFTAs take place on Sunday, February 10 at the Royal Albert Hall.
