Dopo l’ottima partenza , Avatar: The Way of Water ha ottenuto a sorpresa (ma non troppa) ben 14 nomination ai Visual Effects Society Awards 2023. Le candidature sono state annunciate lo scorso martedì. Un record mai raggiunto da nessun film live-action da quando esiste la cerimonia con la quale vengono assegnati i premi agli effetti speciali. Il sequel del film di James Cameron ha superato il precedente risultato di The Mandalorian ma ha anche battuto il numero di nomination ottenute nel 2010 proprio dal primo capitolo di questa serie con 11 candidature.
Avatar: The Way of Water dunque competerà per diversi tipi di premi. I vincitori della 21esima edizione del VES Awards verranno svelati mercoledì 15 febbraio al Beverly Hilton di Los Angeles. Come precedentemente annunciato, durante la cerimonia Gale Anne Hurd riceverà anche il premio alla carriera.
