Newcomer Charlotte Wells has made quite the impression with her debut feature Aftersun, garnering four nominations, including for Best Feature and the Bingham Ray Breakthrough Director Award. Leads Paul Mescal and Frankie Corio have both earned nods in the acting categories.

Additionally, this year’s Gotham Awards will present both Michelle Williams and Adam Sandler with the Performer Tribute, honoring their extensive work and achievements in film.

“Adam Sandler’s spectacular performances across some of the most popular films of the past three decades have inspired the community of filmmakers that we represent here at The Gotham time and time again,” executive director of The Gotham Film & Media Institute Jeffrey Sharp says in a press statement. “Adam has proven that he is a brilliant talent who can deliver genuine heart and hilarious comedy in any role. Whether creating absurdly specific characters, telling jokes, or singing clever songs that we all know and love, Adam Sandler is the consummate performer who has brought immeasurable joy to audiences throughout the world.”

The Gotham Awards will be held on November 28.
