When the Art Directors Guild holds its annual awards ceremony on Feb. 10, prizes will go to talented designers who created looks ranging from the nuclear-threatened whimsy of Wes Anderson’s “Asteroid City,” to the apocalyptic wasteland of “The Last of Us,” to the pink-hued fantasy of a doll choosing between plastic eternity and real-world life and death (she picked the latter).
See a common thread here? In addition to the gloom lurking behind these creations, other contenders provided backdrops for the implied genocide of “Killers of the Flower Moon,” the grief of a lauded composer stricken by the death of his wife in “Maestro,” the battlefield carnage of “Napoleon” and the development of an ultimate weapon that can extinguish humankind in “Oppenheimer.”
Want more? There’s AI armageddon in “The Creator” and “A Murder at the End of the World,” Frankenstein biology in “Poor Things” and a cool-headed professional assassin in “The Killer.

Ayo Edebiri, one of the breakout stars from the first season of the FX/Hulu hit “The Bear,” is switching from supporting comedy actress Emmy consideration to lead for Season 2 that streamed in June on Hulu. While Edebiri, who portrays the young sous chef Sydney Adamu on the show, earned an Emmy nomination for the show’s first season and could still win it when the trophies are handed out in January, she is even more prominent in the show in many of the second season episodes. So the change to lead makes sense.
The switch will also impact her consideration in January for both the Golden Globe and Critics Choice Awards, where Ebebiri will compete as a lead comedy actress. She was nominated in supporting for the Critics Choice TV honors this year and won an Independent Spirit Award for supporting performance in a new scripted series.
