Additionally, Clare Binns, Creative Director of Picture House Cinemas, will be presented with the BAFTA Outstanding British Contribution to Cinema award.
The honour recognises her role in championing diverse and fiercely independent work on big screens around the United Kingdom.
One Battle After Another will be no doubt be hoping to win one award after another, with Paul Thomas Anderson's latest film earning a remarkable fourteen nominations at this year's ceremony.
But it faces stiff competition, notably from supernatural horror Sinners, with thirteen nominations, and Hamnet, director Chloé Zhao's moving drama about the death of Shakespeare's only son, with eleven.
Adapted for the screen from Maggie O'Farrell's award-winning novel about the Bard's family life, Hamnet has broken the record for the most nominations for a female-directed film in BAFTA history.
Irish star Jessie Buckley has been nominated for her lead role in the film after already scoring a Golden Globe and a Critics Choice Award and nominations for the Academy Awards and Screen Actors Guild Awards.
