Independent Spirit Awards 2023: Winners List (Updating Live)
The blue carpet has been rolled out, and soon we’ll know the 2023 Independent Spirit Awards winners. The list of nominees recognized the best among films made for under $30 million in 2023 — that’s an increase from the previous budget cap, in recognition of ever-increasing production costs.
“Everything Everywhere All at Once” led the nominations with eight, followed by “TÁR” with seven and “Aftersun” with five. On the TV side, “Abbott Elementary,” “The Bear,” “Severance,” and “Station Eleven” led the nods.
The 38th edition of the awards put on by Film Independent have made a change previously adopted by the Gotham Awards: to have gender-neutral performance categories. That means Cate Blanchett is not just competing against Michelle Yeoh for Best Lead Performance, but also Paul Mescal from “Aftersun” (though, along with Jeremy Pope in ‘The Inspection” he’s one of only two men in the category). And Jamie Lee Curtis and Ke Huy Quan will be competing directly in the supporting category for “Everything Everywhere All at Once.”
Another big change concerns how to watch the Spirit Awards: the ceremony will not air on IFC but on YouTube.
Keep checking back here throughout the afternoon as the winners are announced from the beloved tent in Santa Monica, where Hasan Minhaj will be the host.
