Producers Guild Awards 2023 nominations out: ‘Fabelmans’, ‘Top Gun’ get boost, ‘RRR’ not in the list

‘Top Gun: Maverick’, Steven Spielberg’s ‘The Fabelmans’, ‘The Banshees of Inisherin’, ‘Everything Everywhere All At Once’ and ‘Tár’ have been nominated for the Producers Guild of America’s top honour, the organization announced on Thursday. However, SS Rajamouli’s magnum opus ‘RRR’ failed to earn a nomination. The film also failed to get a nod at Directors Guild of America (DGA), which is considered a barometer for upcoming Oscar nominations.

‘RRR’ with great word of mouth has attracted a major fanbase worldwide. Ram Charan-Jr NTR starrer won a Golden Globe for Best Original Song, and Rajamouli won the Best Director award at the New York Film Critics Circle honours. The blockbuster also advanced in recently announced Academy’s shortlists.

The nominations for Oscars 2023 will be announced on January 24.

The Producers Guild nominates 10 films annually for the Darryl F. Zanuck Award for Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Pictures. ‘Avatar: The Way of Water’, ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’, ‘Elvis’, ‘Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery’ and ‘The Whale’ were also nominated and all films are hoping to be in the best picture Oscar race.

The PGA also recognizes television programs. Television dramas nominated included ‘Andor’, ‘Better Call Saul’, ‘Ozark’, ‘Severance’ and ‘The White Lotus’. Comedies were ‘Abbott Elementary’, ‘Barry’, ‘The Bear’, ‘Hacks’ and ‘Only Murders in the Building’.

The Producers Guild Awards will be handed out at an untelevised ceremony in Los Angeles on February 25. Tom Cruise will be honoured with the David O. Selznick Achievement Award.
