Corbould has been awarded two Honorary Doctorates from Southampton Solent University in December 2009 and the University of Hertfordshire in 2011. In 2011, he won the Academy Award for Best Visual Effects at the 83rd Academy Awards for his work on Inception. He is the brother of special effects supervisors Neil Corbould and Paul Corbould.
In March 2011, Corbould went on trial for breaching health and safety regulations regarding the death of stunt technician Conway Wickliffe during the production of The Dark Knight in 2007. He was not found guilty, and the incident was ruled an accident.
