‘Barbie,’ ‘The Holdovers,’ ‘Succession’ Among 39th Artios Awards Winners

Just days before Oscar’s big night, many of the film nominees held court one last time at the 39th Artios Awards, which celebrates achievement in casting. The Casting Society’s Thursday celebration stretched across three cities, where four of this year’s Best Picture Academy Award contenders won their categories: “Barbie,” “The Holdovers,” “Killers of the Flower Moon” and “Past Lives.”

Smaller, less-recognized films such as “Are You There God? It’s Me Margaret,” “Fire Island,” “Summoning Sylvia,” and “Memory” were also among the winners for cinematic achievement.

Television awards juggernauts “The Bear,” “Beef,” “The Last of Us” and “Succession” continued their season steamroll to take many of the TV categories. Departing series “Reservation Dogs” and “A Black Lady Sketch Show” also picked up prizes.

Animated film went to favorite “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse,” while Netflix’s “Big Mouth” triumphed in the TV category.

Theatrical productions were also recognized, including such Broadway blockbusters as the Daniel Radcliffe-starring “Merrily We Roll Along,” the hugely successful revival of “Into the Woods,” starring Sara Barflies, and the national tour of pop sensation “Six.”

The three ceremonies took place in Los Angeles at the Beverly Hilton with host Niecy Nash-Betts; in New York at the Edison Ballroom with host Alex Edelman; and in London at the White City House with host Samantha Morton.

Below is a complete list of the Artios winners.
