The winner among this year’s six nominees will be presented with the distinction during the 59th annual ICG Publicists Awards’ March 25 luncheon at The Beverly Hilton Hotel.
The Maxwell Weinberg Award for Motion Picture Publicity celebrates ICG members working on films during the previous calendar year who accomplishments in promotion and publicity have been deemed outstanding by the group’s general membership.

Pictures & Legendary Pictures), F9: The Fast Saga (Universal), The Harder They Fall (Netflix), A Quiet Place Part II (Paramount Pictures), Spider-Man: No Way Home (Sony Pictures Entertainment / Marvel Studios) and West Side Story (20th Century Studios / Walt Disney Studios).
“This year’s list of nominees is impressive, and we are proud to honor the creative and innovative work of the Local 600 publicists who coordinated and implemented these successful campaigns during a very difficult time,” said Sheryl Main, an ICG Publicists Awards chair, in a statement. Tim Menke also serves as a chair.
