"Joker" leads the UK's 2020 BAFTA Film Awards nominations, being shortlisted in 11 categories, including best film, best director and leading actor.

Martin Scorsese's epic mob movie "" and Quentin Tarantino's "" both received 10 nominations, it was announced Tuesday.

BAFTA has become the latest high-profile awards ceremony to be criticized for a lack of diversity, with BAFTA bosses acknowledging the all-white shortlists in the acting categories as "infuriating."

"Joker" star Joaquin Phoenix -- who won a Golden Globe for best actor in a drama film on Sunday for his role in the dark origin story of the -- joins Leonardo DiCaprio, Adam Driver, Taron Egerton and Jonathan Pryce in the leading actor category.

Jessie Buckley, Charlize Theron, Scarlett Johansson, Saoirse Ronan, and Renée Zellweger -- -- all received nods for leading actress.

Margot Robbie received two nominations for supporting actress -- one for her portrayal of Sharon Tate in "Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood," and another for "Bombshell."

Scorsese, Tarantino, Sam Mendes, Todd Phillips and Bong Joon-ho have all been nominated in the director category -- which features no women.

Amanda Berry, BAFTA chief executive, said she was "disappointed" at the lack of gender diversity in the nominees list, but added it was "not to take anything away from the people who have been nominated."

Berry told the UK's PA news agency: "We do have 13 directors nominated who are females across other categories... and this is what gives me joy and hope actually, six female directors in the shorts category and that is the category where we are really seeing talent at the start of their career and they are the industry of the future, but we are going to do more, we are not going to stop pushing."

Executives also called the lack of diversity among the nominees "infuriating."

"Clearly everybody knows that everybody in the four acting groups of nominees are white, it's infuriating, we can't make the industry do something, all we can do is encourage and push and inspire and try to help people coming in at the bottom end," Marc Samuelson, chairman of BAFTA's film committee, told PA.

The awards ceremony, which is seen as an important indicator for the Oscars, will be held on February 2.
