- New Republic Pictures co-financed Amblin Entertainment’s 1917, which received 10 Oscar nominations and won Oscars for best cinematography, sound mixing, and visual effects.
- LD Entertainment distributed the film Judy, whose leading actress, Renée Zellweger, won the Oscar for best actress in a leading role.
- Hildur Guðnadóttir, the first woman in over 20 years to win an Academy Award for original score – and the first ever to win for a dramatic composition – was recognized for her work on Joker.
