Wicked director Jon M. Chu will receive the ACE Golden Eddie Filmmaker of the Year Award from the American Cinema Editors (ACE), it was announced on Monday.

The award recognizes “an artist who exemplifies distinguished achievement in the art and business of film,” according to ACE. Film editors Maysie Hoy and Paul Hirsch will also receive career achievement honors for their “outstanding career contributions to film editing.”

All honors will be presented at the 7th annual ACE Eddie Awards on Jan. 18 at UCLA’s Royce Hall. Nominations will be announced on Dec. 11. 

“Jon M. Chu is a visionary filmmaker who has captivated audiences worldwide with his dynamic storytelling and innovative visual style,” says newly elected ACE president Sabrina Plisco. “From the vibrant energy of In The Heights to the sweeping romance of the groundbreaking Crazy Rich Asians, his films are a testament to the power of cinema to transport, entertain and inspire. The highly anticipated Wicked only adds to his exciting cinematic legacy. Jon embodies the spirit of innovation and passion that ACE champions, and we are thrilled to celebrate him at the ACE Eddie Awards.”

Chu, who was recently on The Hollywood Reporter‘s Power 100 list, is currently gearing up to release Wicked starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande. His other credits include In the Heights, Crazy Rich Asians, GI Joe: Retaliation, Now You See Me 2 and Justin Bieber’s Never Say Never. He is in post-production on Wicked: Part Two and is developing the biopic for Britney Spears based on her memoir, The Woman in Me.

Golden Eddie award recipients have previously been John Waters, Gina Prince-Bythewood, Spike Lee, Quentin Tarantino, Kathleen Kennedy, Christopher Nolan, Lauren Shuler Donner, Guillermo del Toro, Vince Gilligan, J.J. Abrams, Nancy Meyers, Martin Scorsese, Norman Jewison, Robert Zemeckis, George Lucas and the Sundance Institute, among others.

Hoy’s credits include The Joy Luck Club, The Player, Love Jones, Freeway, Crazy in Alabama, Freedom Song, What Dreams May Come, Smoke and over a dozen Tyler Perry films including Good Deeds, For Colored Girls, Why Did I Get Married?, Madea Goes To Jail and The Six Triple Eight. Hirsch is an Oscar-winning film editor whose credits include Star Wars: A New Hope (for which he won the Oscar), The Empire Strikes Back, Carrie, Blow Out, Mission: Impossible, Footloose, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off and Planes, Trains & Automobiles. He received a second Oscar nomination for Ray.

“Our Career Achievement Award recipients this year are extraordinary,” Plisco continued. “Maysie Hoy’s career exemplifies the dedication, artistry, and collaborative spirit that defines our craft. From her early days working alongside Robert Altman to her impressive body of work spanning decades, Maysie has consistently delivered exceptional storytelling through her editing. And Paul Hirsch is a master storyteller whose editing has shaped some of the most iconic films in history. From the groundbreaking Star Wars to the thrilling Mission: Impossible franchise, his work has captivated audiences and inspired generations of filmmakers. American Cinema Editors is proud to celebrate these extraordinary talents who have given so much to cinema through their work and so much to our organization through their dedication to giving back.”

Past recipients of the ACE Career Achievement Award include Lynne Willingham, Don Zimmerman, Lillian Benson, Richard Chew, Alan Heim, Tina Hirsch, Thelma Schoonmaker, Janet Ashikaga, Craig McKay, Jerrold L. Ludwig, Mark Goldblatt and Leon Ortiz-Gil, among many others.
