Another Apple TV production, The Lost Bus, was nominated for visual effects. However, they were trumped by the James Cameron production “Avatar: Fire and Ash”. In the other two categories, Apple lost to the absolute favorite of this year’s Academy Awards: “One Battle After Another” received a total of six awards, including best film and best performance in editing. The Apple TV production Come See Me in the Good Light was also a contender for an Oscar as best documentary – “Mr. Nobody against Putin” won here.

Three “Actor Awards” for “The Studio”
The “Actor Awards” are presented by the influential Hollywood union SAG-AFTRA; their gala took place on March 1st. Apple productions have been nominated several times here; In the end, only one Apple series was able to win the actual prize – but three times: Both Seth Rogen and Catherine O’Hara were recognized for their performance in The Studio, as well as the entire ensemble as best performance in a comedy format. Unfortunately, O’Hara was not able to witness this triumph – she died on January 30, 2026.
Best music video (according to ADG)
The “Art Directors’ Guild” (ADG) had already chosen its winners on February 28th – for the 30th time. Apple was able to win here several times. The debut season of Palm Royale is the best “one hour period single-camera series” for ADG, while Severance is the favorite among the “one hour contemporary single-camera series”. “Pluribus” and “Slow Horses” were also among the nominees. “The Studio” won the “Half Hour Single-Camera Series” against, among others, “Murderbot”. In the “short format & music videos” category, the ADG honored the short film “Someday” by Spike Jonze – the production with elaborate stage design and sophisticated choreography is (almost incidentally) an advertising clip for AirPods 4G with active noise cancellation. YouTube’s play count has exceeded 45 million:
