In collaboration with Universal Pictures and Focus Features, we delivered a prestige-driven BAFTA and UK AMPAS campaign for Hamnet, rooted in its rich British pedigree, from Maggie O'Farrell’s acclaimed source material to a predominantly British creative team including Sam Mendes, Pippa Harris and Liza Marshall. With strong access to talent such as Paul Mescal and Jessie Buckley, as well as filmmaker Chloé Zhao, we delivered a campaign rich in Q&As and voter engagement. Standout moments included Max Richter performing live at Southwark Cathedral and a special Q&A at Charterhouse. The film went on to secure major recognition, including Leading Actress wins for Buckley at both BAFTA and Oscars, and Outstanding British Film at BAFTA.

Collaborating closely with us, DDA’s International team also led all international publicity efforts on the film alongside Universal Pictures and Focus Features, from its London Film Festival launch through to the film’s theatrical release.
