Cinema Audio Society Awards: ‘Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse’, ‘The Bear’, ‘Weird: The Al Yankovic Story’ Among Winners – Updating Live

The 60th Cinema Audio Society Awards are underway Saturday night at the Beverly Hilton, with the group honoring the year’s best in feature film and TV sound mixing.

Tom Papa is hosting the ceremony that will crown winners in seven competitive categories, while along the way honoring JJ Abrams with the society’s Filmmaker of the Year award and Joe Earl (American Horror Story, Six Feet Under) the CAS Career Achievement Award. 

Already tonight, FX’s The Bear, which has swept to major wins at the Emmys and SAG Awards among other honors, won here for Half Hour TV series, submitting Season 2’s episode “Forks.” Sony’s Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse won for Motion Picture – Animated.

Also, the Roku Channel’s Weird: The Al Yankovic Story has won in the Non-Theatrical Motion Picture or Limited Series category, while Sam Green’s 32 Sounds appropriately won for Documentary, topping a field that included the sound mixers from the 2023 concert film phenomenon Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour.

This year’s marquee Live Action Motion Picture category features craftsman from two of the five of this year’s Best Sound Oscar nominees in Universal’s Oppenheimer and Netflix’s Maestro. They are joined by Warner Bros’ Barbie, Neon’s Ferrari and Apple’s Killers of the Flower Moon.

Last year, Paramount’s Top Gun: Maverick won in the category. It went on to repeat the feat at the Oscars.

In addition to Oppenheimer and Maestro, this year’s Oscar nominees in the Sound category include Disney’s The Creator, Paramount’s Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One and A24’s The Zone of Interest.

Tonight’s CAS TV categories, meanwhile, include a swath of titles that have been among the staples of awards season, with nominees including Succession, Beef, Ted Lasso, The Crown, The Last of Us, Only Murders in the Building, The Mandalorian and Welcome to Wrexham.
