DGA Awards 2024: Christopher Nolan, Greta Gerwig among nominees
Christopher Nolan and Greta Gerwig
The 76th annual DGA Awards released its list of nominees for the current year and no points for guessing, Barbenheimer directors Greta Gerwig and Christopher Nolan have made it to the best feature film director list. Both Greta (Barbie) and Christopher (Oppenheimer) have been ruling the world of films in awards, after the two films created a massive furore at the box office and brought the Hollywood fraternity out of its slumber in 2023.
The Directors Guild of America nominated five directors in total. In addition to Greta, there is Martin Scorsese in the list for Killers of the Flower Moon, Yorgos Lanthimos for Poor Things and Alexander Payne for The Holdovers.
In a statement, Directors Guild of America president Lesli Linka Glatter said, “In a year full of so many extraordinary films, DGA members have nominated an incredible group of gifted storytellers. Their films fused technical prowess with unique artistic visions that captured the depth of the human experience and left an indelible impact on audiences around the world. Congratulations to these superb directors on their well-deserved nominations.”
The DGA Awards are considered important and serve as a precursor to The Academy Awards.
