Svelate le shortlist della 31esima edizione dei Critics Choice Awards, a dominare Sinners domina con 13 menzioni.
La Critics Choice Association, come riportato da AwardsWatch, ha svelato le shortlist delle categorie tecniche della 31esima edizione dei Critics Choice Awards, che includono tutti i principali ambiti below-the-line, dalla fotografia al montaggio, dai costumi al sonoro. Tra i titoli candidabili figurano anche film non ancora disponibili alla visione entro il 24 novembre, purché arrivino ai critici entro il 3 dicembre, come Avatar: Fire and Ash, atteso dal 1° dicembre.
A primeggiare è Sinners di Warner Bros., che conquista tredici menzioni e compare in tutte le categorie tecniche, distinguendosi soprattutto nella sezione Miglior Canzone, dove inserisce tre brani originali: I Lied to You, Last Time (I Seen the Sun) e Pale, Pale Moon. Alle sue spalle si posizionano F1: The Movie, Frankenstein e Wicked: For Good, ciascuno con nove riconoscimenti, mentre Hamnet e One Battle After Another ne totalizzano sette.
La cerimonia, condotta ancora una volta da Chelsea Handler, andrà in onda domenica 4 gennaio 2026 su E! e USA Network, in diretta dal Barker Hangar di Santa Monica. L’edizione manterrà il format che unisce cinema, televisione e streaming e introdurrà quattro nuove categorie: Miglior Serie Varietà, Miglior Stunt Design, Miglior Casting e Ensemble e Miglior Suono.
