Producers Guild Nominees Range From ‘Belfast’ and ‘CODA’ to ‘Dune’

The busiest single day of movie nominations in a few years kicked off on Thursday with the Producers Guild of America saying its nominees for the best-produced movies of 2021, a slate of movies that ranged from indies like “Belfast” and “CODA” to the larger price range extravaganzas “Dune” and “West Facet Story.”

Additionally on the listing: “Being the Ricardos,” “Don’t Look Up,” “King Richard,” “Licorice Pizza,” “The Energy of the Canine” and “tick, tick…BOOM!”

Conspicuously lacking from the PGA’s listing had been the COVID-wracked yr’s greatest blockbuster, “Spider-Man: No Method Residence” and the James Bond movie “No Time to Die,” in addition to “Nightmare Alley,” “The Tragedy of Macbeth” and “Home of Gucci.”

Netflix landed three nominations with “Don’t Look Up,” “The Energy of the Canine” and “tick, tick…BOOM!” whereas Warner Bros. took two with “Dune” and “King Richard.” Different firms represented had been Focus (“Belfast”), Apple (“CODA”), MGM (“Licorice Pizza”), twentieth Century (“West Facet Story”) and Amazon (“Being the Ricardos,” the most important shock among the many nominations).

The Producers Guild nominations, one of many clearest indications of the form of any awards season, had been introduced at 7 a.m. PT, and will probably be adopted by nominations by two extra main guilds, the Administrators Guild and the Writers Guild, in addition to the American Cinema Editors, whose ACE Eddie Awards are additionally essential in wanting on the race.

With the Display Actors Guild already saying its nominations, 4 movies have been nominated for each the SAG Ensemble award and the PGA Award: “Belfast,” “CODA,” “Don’t Look Up” and “King Richard.” (“The Energy of the Canine” landed particular person SAG nods for Benedict Cumberbatch, Kirsten Dunst and Kodi Smit-McPhee, however didn’t obtain an ensemble nomination.)

Within the animated-feature class, the Producers selected the identical 5 movies which were receiving the lion’s share of nominations: “Encanto,” “Luca,” “The Mitchells vs. the Machines,” “Raya and the Final Dragon” and “Sing 2.”

TV nominations went to “The Handmaid’s Story,” “The Morning Present,” “Squid Recreation,” “Succession” and “Yellowstone” within the drama class, and “Cobra Kai,” “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” “Hacks,” “Solely Murders within the Constructing” and “Ted Lasso” in comedy.

Normally, Producers Guild feature-film nominations are a dependable predictor of Oscar success: Because the Academy and the Guild each expanded from 5 to 10 nominees in 2009, 94 of the 106 Oscar Finest Image nominees — nearly 90% — have first been nominated by the Producers Guild.

The 2 awards have by no means fully agreed in that point, principally as a result of the Producers Guild caught with a flat 10 nominees when the Academy moved to a variable quantity (which at all times turned out to be eight or 9) for ten years starting in 2011. However in three of the final 5 years, the slate of PGA nominees has included each movie that might go on to be nominated for the Oscar.

Solely as soon as within the 31 years of the Producers Guild Awards, which started in 1989, has the eventual Oscar Finest Image winner not been first nominated by the guild. The one exception got here in 1996, when Oscar winner “Braveheart” was not a PGA nominee.

Right here is the whole listing of nominees. If particular person producers are usually not listed, eligibility continues to be being decided by the PGA.
