‘Beetlejuice Beetlejuice,’ ‘The Penguin,’ ‘The Substance’ and ‘The Deliverance’ Lead Make-Up Artists and Hair Stylists Guild Awards Nominations
The Make-Up Artists & Hair Stylists Guild (MUAHS, IATSE Local 706) has announced the nominees for the 12th annual MUAHS Guild Awards, with The Penguin, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, The Substance and The Deliverance leading the competition with three nods each.
Max’s The Penguin received nominations for best special make-up effects, best contemporary hairstyling and best contemporary make-up, with Beetlejuice Beetlejuice receiving nods for best period and/or character make-up, best period and/or character hairstyling and best special make-up effects. (Secret’s Beetlejuice Beetlejuice “Lifesaver” commercial was also nominated for best make-up and best hairstyling.) Both The Substance and The Deliverance were nominated in the categories of best contemporary make-up, best contemporary hairstyling and best special make-up effects.
Wicked and Gladiator II also received two nominations each in the categories of best period and/or character make-up and best period and/or character hairstyling. It Ends With Us garnered nominations for best contemporary make-up and best contemporary hairstyling and Deadpool & Wolverine scored two nods for best period and/or character make-up and best special make-up effects. Ties in the categories of best contemporary make-up in a television series — limited, miniseries or movie for television and best hairstyling in a children’s program resulted in six nominees in each category instead of five.
Winners across all 23 categories — which, for the first time, include the addition of Broadway and international live productions — will be honored at the MUAHS awards gala on Feb. 15, 2025, at the Fairmont Century Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles. As previously announced, Emmy award-winning make-up artist Todd McIntosh, best known for his work on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Memoirs of a Geisha, and award-winning hairstylist Peter Tothpal, known for his work on Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, will receive lifetime achievement awards.
