Emma Stone clearly wasn’t a fan of Zoe Ball’s line of questioning at the BAFTAs.

The La La Land star – who won Leading Actress for her role in the Hollywood musical – kicked off this year’s ceremony with a frosty red carpet interview.

Stone, 28, was stopped by Ball as she made her way into the Royal Albert Hall, London, and asked if she had prepared a winner’s speech.

The actress looked bemused before rolling her eyes and replying: “Oh God. We’ll see.

“You know, I’m just going to enjoy the show. That’s what I’m going to do.”

Stone looked equally as unimpressed when Ball referenced the news that she is set to play Cruella de Vil in Disney's upcoming 101 Dalmatians spin-off.

“I’ll just say the one word to you – Cruella,” Ball said.

Stone replied: “What about her?”

After Ball asked whether or not it was happening, the actress remained tight-lipped and said: “We will see, it’s very early so we’ll see how it all pans out.”

British Academy Film Awards 2017

Stone was honoured for her role in Damien Chazelle’s Oscar nominated film on Sunday night.

On accepting the Leading Actress gong she said: “This was one of the greatest working experiences of my life.

Referencing the political climate in the UK and the US she continued: “This country and the US seems to be going through a bit of a time.

“I think it's so special we were able to come together tonight thanks to Bafta, to celebrate the positive gift of creativity and how it can transcend borders and how it can help people to feel a little less alone.”

La La Land took home five awards including the coveted Best Film.
