Just days after the Academy Award nominations were released, the Writers Guild Awards have dropped their list of hopefuls — and given justice to previously snubbed films in the process.
The Writers Guild Awards honour outstanding writing in film, television, new media, news, radio, and promotional categories.
Jordan Peele's sci-fi/horror flick Nope scored a nomination for Original Screenplay, joining the likes of Everything Everywhere All at Once (which is leading the Oscar nominations with 11 nods), The Fablemans, The Menu and Tar.
She Said, a dramatic account of the New York Times piece that led to Harvey Weinstein's unravelling and helped ignite the #MeToo movement, was snubbed across the board in this year's Oscars nominations.
Based on the book of the same name by the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists who broke the story, She Said earned a Writers Guild nod for Adapted Screenplay alongside Glass Onion and Top Gun: Maverick.
In terms of television, dramas Better Call Saul and Severance scored multiple nominations, with The Bear and Abbott Elementary leading the comedy categories.
The 75th Writers Guild Awards will be held on March 5.
