Hoyte Van Hoytema emerged as the winner at the 38th annual American Society of Cinematographers Awards for his exceptional work on the film 'Oppenheimer.' The prestigious event, held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel, saw Van Hoytema surpassing other talented nominees including Edward Lachman for 'El Conde,' Matthew Libatique for 'Maestro,' Rodrigo Prieto for 'Killers of the Flower Moon,' and Robbie Ryan for 'Poor Things.'
All five nominees in the theatrical feature film category are also in the running for the best cinematography award at the Oscars. Notably, in the history of the ASC Awards, only 17 winners have gone on to clinch the Oscar. Last year, Mandy Walker made history by becoming the first woman to win an ASC award for her work on 'Elvis,' although the Academy Award eventually went to James Friend for 'All Quiet on the Western Front.'
