“Bugonia” and “Train Dreams” were also among the nominees, as
well as two more unexpected choices: The Formula One racing
movie “F1” and the horror hit “Weapons.” Notably, four of the
films on the list, “F1,” “Weapons,” “One Battle After Another”
and “Sinners” were Warner Bros. theatrical releases.
Not included, however, were “Avatar: Fire and Ash” or “Wicked:
For Good,” two big budget, studio spectacles that might have
been considered shoo-ins for a producing honor.
The nominees aligned closely with the five films singled out by
the actors guild and the directors guild earlier this week. The
full list of 10 could also very well predict the best picture
batch when Oscar nominations are announced on Jan. 22.
The winner of the Zanuck award has 17 times in the past 22 years
gone on to win the best picture Oscar as well, including last
year with “Anora.”
The guild also nominated five films for animated feature,
including “KPop Demon Hunters,” “Zootopia 2,” “Elio,” “The Bad
Guys 2” and “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle.”
They also recognize television shows and movies, where nominees
in the various categories include “Andor,” “The Pitt,” “South
Park,” “Adolescence,” “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” and
“Mr. Scorsese.”
The 37th annual Producers Guild Awards will be held on Feb. 28
in Los Angeles.
