The Wild Robot and The Brutalist took the Original Score film prizes, and Atticus Ross scored a pair of trophies at the sixth annual SCL Awards, which were handed out Wednesday night at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles. See the full winners list from the Society of Composers and Lyricists below.
Perennial Oscar hopeful Diane Warren’s “The Journey” from The Six Triple Eight took Outstanding Original Song for a drama or documentary film, and Ross, Trent Reznor & Luca Guadagnino’s “Compress/Repress” from Challengers won Original Song for a comedy.
Ross was the night’s lone double winner, sharing Outstanding Original Score for a Television Production with Leopold Ross and Nick Chuba for Shōgun.
Special honorees tonight were composer Harry Gregson-Williams and legendary director Ridley Scott, who shared the 2025 Spirit of Collaboration Award, having made seven films together. Five-time Emmy winner Jeff Beal received the Jury Award for his score for the 1920 silent film The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, which he premiered and was performed live-to-picture at Carnegie Hall in June.

“As we celebrate the dedication and creativity of our fellow composers and lyricists, we also reflect on the larger context of hardship and loss that surrounds us,” SCL President Ashley Irwin said in a statement. “The catastrophic fires have left an indelible mark on our city, its residents and our community. Yet, in this adversity, we find strength, and we find inspiration. This year’s SCL Awards is not only a celebration of personal accomplishment but also of resilience, hope and the collective strength that binds us together in the face of adversity.”
