The editors of “Oppenheimer,” “Killers of the Flower Moon” and “Maestro” have been nominated for the 74th annual ACE Eddie Awards by the American Cinema Editors, ACE announced on Thursday.

Jennifer Lame (“Oppenheimer”), Thelma Schoonmaker (“Killers”) and Michelle Tesoro (“Maestro”) are competing with Laurent Sénéchal for “Anatomy of a Fall” and Keith Fraase for “Past Lives” in the Best Edited Feature Film (Drama, Theatrical) category, giving that category three female nominees for the first time in eight years.

In the Best Edited Feature Film (Comedy, Theatrical) category, “American Fiction” editor Hilda Rasula was nominated along with William Goldenberg for “Air,” Nick Huoy for “Barbie,” Kevin Tent for “The Holdovers” and Yorgos Mavropsaridis for “Poor Things.”

Sénéchal, Tent, Schoonmaker, Lame and Mavropsaridis were all nominated for the Academy Award for Best Film Editing on Tuesday.

In the television categories, Emmy winners “The Bear,” “Succession” and “Beef” were all nominated for two awards in their categories.

Winners will be announced at the ACE Eddie ceremony on March 3 at Royce Hall on the UCLA campus in West Los Angeles. Drag queen and activist Nina West will host the brunch celebration. West is best known for her performance as Edna Turnblad in the national touring company of “Hairspray,” the musical based on a 1988 comedy by John Waters — who will himself be honored at the ceremony with the ACE Golden Eddie Filmmaker of the Year Award.

Other honorary awards will go to editors Kate Amend and Walter Much, who will receive career achievement awards, and Stephen Lovejoy, who will receive the ACE Heritage Award.
