The 70th Annual MPSE Golden Reel Awards will be held on Sunday, 26 February, 2023, at the Wilshire Ebell Theatre in Los Angeles. “Tom Cruise is the perfect presenter as we honor Jerry Bruckheimer and his incredible contributions to the world of film and television,” said MPSE President Mark A.

'Top Gun: Maverick' broke box office records worldwide, was named the year’s Best Picture by the National Board of Review and is listed among 2022’s Top Ten films by USA Today, the American Film Institute and many others," a recent release read.
