Soul e Wolfwalkers hanno portato a casa diversi premi durante la 48ª cerimonia degli Annie Awards, premi dedicati all'animazione. 
Il film Disney/Pixar ha trionfato in sette categorie, compresa quella del Miglior Film, mentre il "piccolo lungometraggio europeo" – come l'hanno descritto i registi – ha ottenuto cinque statuette, compresa quella per Miglior Film Indipendente.

Dopo la sfida agli Annie Awards, quindi, la partita è apertissima in vista degli Oscar di settimana prossima, dove si sfideranno con Onward, Over the Moon e A Shaun the Sheep Movie: Farmageddon.
