Cinema Audio Society Awards: ‘F1,’ ‘KPop Demon Hunters’ and ‘Becoming Led Zeppelin’ Among Film Winners

F1: The Movie, and Becoming Led Zeppelin were among the motion picture winners at Saturday night’s Awards. Elsewhere in the television categories, , Adolescence and The Pitt were the big winners. The awards ceremony was hosted by Chris Hardwick Saturday night at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California. There, Skip Lievsay CAS was honored with the CAS Career Achievement Award, while Guillermo del Toro received the Filmmaker Award. And this year, the Cinema Audio Society gave out the inaugural Jeffrey S. Wexler Award for Advancement in Sound Technology to Evan Brooks, Peter Gotcher, Glenn Sanders and Howard Stark.

We are proud to recognize professionals whose dedication and excellence continue to elevate the standard for our industry.” F1 is similarly nominated for the 2026 Academy Award for sound alongside Frankenstein, One Battle After Another, Sinners and Sirat. Last year, the CAS awarded A Complete Unknown with its live action motion picture award and in 2024, Oppenheimer won the top honor at the CAS Awards, though in the three years before that, the winning CAS honored film went on to win the Academy Award.
