Wallace & Gromit Wins Two BAFTA Awards for Vengeance Most Fowl

The latest film from the Wallace & Gromit franchise, 'Vengeance Most Foul,' won two awards at the BAFTA Film Awards 2025, including Best Animated Film and Best Children's and Family Film. Directed by Nick Park and Merlin Crossingham, the film features the return of the villainous penguin Feathers McGraw and explores the conflict between Wallace and his beagle Gromit due to a rogue smart gnome. The BAFTA ceremony, where the film was presented awards by Camila Cabello, highlighted the contributions of the voice cast, including Ben Whitehead, who took over the role of Wallace after the passing of Peter Sallis. The film premiered on Christmas Day and garnered over 21 million viewers on the BBC, marking it as a significant success. Nick Park expressed gratitude towards his team and the talented cast during the acceptance speeches, humorously noting he hadn't prepared a second speech for their animated film win. 'Vengeance Most Foul' is also nominated for an Oscar, competing with notable animated films from Disney and DreamWorks.
