Juno Temple, 23, was at the nominations launch at Bafta headquarters in London. She said: "I'm so honoured, truly down to my toes. And I think it's so exciting to be up there with these amazing, amazing young talented actors that are doing such beautiful work. And it's so good to be part of a British Bafta thing. In the last year Temple has appeared on screen with Matthew McConaughey in the critically acclaimed Killer Joe and with Kylie Minogue in Jack & Diane, as well as working with Daniel Radcliffe on fantasy film Horns, and with Angelina Jolie on Disney film Maleficent. She said: "Last year for me was mad. I worked a lot. I played a prostitute, a fairy, a schizophrenic and a dead girl. An array of different roles. So I'm excited for those to come out. Each one of those jobs was an amazing experience, and I think I've been very lucky with all the work that I've done, because I've got to work with amazing people, who guide you and teach you, and I'm just learning all the time from actors and directors. It's like being a sponge and sucking up all the knowledge you can from each job. Film critic Mark Kermode was on the jury that selected the shortlist of rising stars to put before the public vote. He said: "The way that the Rising Star Award works is, it's not designed as a newcomer award. So although you have someone like Suraj Sharma who derived through Life Of Pi, you also have Andrea Riseborough, who has had a terrific career on stage, on television and in cinema. So it's basically attempting to catch somebody just on the cusp of stardom and ask the public who they think is the star of tomorrow. And the really lovely thing is, having got to this shortlist, which I think is a really lovely shortlist, I'm just glad that it's not now my job to be any part of choosing who that winner is. Because I think any one of them would be a worthy winner. And now we're saying to the public: 'Now you choose.' And it's lovely that at a ceremony like the Bafta's the public get to choose who their Rising Star winner is.
