Casting Society Artios Awards 2025 Nominations: TV, Theater, More

The Casting Society (CSA) has revealed its Artios Awards nominations for TV, theater, commercials, short films and short form series.

In the TV categories, Netflix leads with 17 nominations, followed by HBO/Max with six and Prime Video, Apple TV+ and FX with five nods each.

Film nominations will be revealed in January with submissions for feature films opening on Nov. 13. The awards in all categories will be presented at galas in New York, Los Angeles and London on Feb. 12.

“Congratulations to all of the nominees on their incredible work, including those in our expanded international casting categories, which underscores the global reach of the casting profession,” CSA president Destiny Lilly said in a statement. “We look forward to once again gathering our community to honor the incredible achievements in casting globally in February.”

The Artios Awards honors casting professionals in more than 30 categories across film, TV and theater. Nominations and winners are voted on by members of the Casting Society.

While the Emmys already honors casting, the Oscars will begin presenting an award honoring casting, starting in 2026.
