2020 Writers Guild Awards Nominations Announced, Tarantino Ineligible

Writers Guild of America West (WGAW) and the Writers Guild of America East (WGAE) have officially announced the films that are nominated for outstanding achievement in screenwriting during 2019. The winners will be presented at the 72nd Writers Guild Awards on February 1, at concurrent ceremonies in Los Angeles and New York City.

After earning two major Golden Globe Awards for Best Director and Best Picture-Drama, Sam Mendes’ 1917 successfully lands a nomination along with Bong Joon-Ho’s Parasite, Greta Gerwig’s Little Women and Rian Johnson’s Knives Out. Check out the full list of nominations below!

Despite winning two Golden Globe Awards last night including Best Screenplay and Best Picture-Musical/Comedy, Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood was shut out from the nominations along with Pedro Almodóvar’s Pain & Glory, and Lulu Wang’s The Farewell due to WGA rules. Tarantino has refused to join the WGA ever since a dispute over credit on Oliver Stone’s 1994 film Natural Born Killers, and non-members are shut out of awards consideration from the group. This will not effect his Oscar chances, though.
