Margot Robbie and Rosamund Pike are among the nominees for the National Film Awards.

The stars of 'Barbie' and 'Saltburn' respectively will compete against talent including Patricia Hodge ('Arthur's Whiskey'), Jo Hartley ('Swede Caroline'), Eiza Gonzalez ('The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare') and Emma Stone ('Poor Things)' in a star-studded Best Actress category.

This year's ceremony is set to take place on July 3 at the Porchester Hall in London and marks the 10th anniversary of the prestigious awards. It will feature a lineup of nominees from around the globe consisting of seasoned acting veterans and emerging young talents.

The Best Actor category is equally competitive with stars including Barry Keoghan ('Saltburn), Kevin Hart ('Lift') and Ewan McGregor ('Bleeding Love') competing for the prize with Kane Robinson ('The Kitchen') and LaKeith Stanfield ('Book of Clarence').

Meanwhile, the Best British Film category celebrates homegrown talent with nominees including 'Scoop', 'Back to Black' and 'Poor Things'.

The Best International Film category highlights the worldwide impact that cinema has with pictures such as 'Barbie' and 'Bob Marley: One Love' in contention for the gong.

Elsewhere, industry luminaries including Margot Robbie ('Barbie'), Bill Nighy ('The Beautiful Game'), Sir Anthony Hopkins ('One Life') and Johnny Depp ('Jeanne du Barry') have been recognised in the Global Contribution to Motion Picture.

The National Film Awards is one of the only film and television awards ceremonies in the world where all the categories are voted for by the public and the winners will be broadcast on the streaming TV platform VooVix TV.

It's 'extremely unlikely' Trump or Harris will repeal CHIPS Act
The US presidential election has brought the CHIPS Act into focus as artificial intelligence (AI) weighs the impacts of Vice President Kamala Harris or former President Donald Trump's White House. Rhodium Group director Reva Goujon joins Julie Hyman and Josh Lipton on Market Domination to break down her expectations for the CHIPS Act under the next presidential administration. "The CHIPS Act is extremely unlikely to be repealed. There is bipartisan support for industrial policy, especially for chips, but it comes down to results," Goujon tells Yahoo Finance, noting that the "stakes are high" for Intel (INTC) and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSM) specifically. "One important thing to keep in mind is that we've actually seen some pragmatism out of the Biden administration in realizing that these chip fabs are not going to be built on this kind of timeline if they don't start accelerating things. And so there have already been compromises, for example, on environmental reviews, where fabs are not going to need National Environmental Policy Act reviews, and that's all meant to kind of accelerate this process. So, in terms of trying to shore up the CHIPS Act, I would see those kinds of provisions being targeted but not the overall strategic goal of getting funding behind bolstering chip manufacturing in the United States," the strategist says. She adds that "technology controls targeting China are going to be a major feature of either administration," with Trump saying he'll instate hefty tariffs while Harris may be more of the same, maintaining the status quo of the Biden administration. Watch the video above for more on how Trump or Harris could change the CHIPS Act, how it could affect geopolitical tensions with China and the effect of the AI trade.
