There is no rest of the weary this awards season as the post-Golden Globes hangover saw nominations revealed for the WGA, Art Directors Guild and the ACE Eddie Awards. But, wait, there’s more. The Directors Guild of America won’t reveal the Film nominees until tomorrow, but this morning those honored for their work in Television, Documentary Film and Commercials were revealed.
This year saw a number of notable first-time nominees including Jason Bateman (“Ozark”), Bill Hader (“Barry”), Ben Stiller (“Escape at Dannemora”) and Hiro Murai (“Atlanta”). There were also some notable snubs in the major categories including Sam Esmail‘s stellar work on “Homecoming,” the directors of the final season of “The Americans” and Ryan Murphy or any of the other directors of “The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story.”
The documentary film category honored “RBG,” “Hale County This Morning, This Evening,” “Free Solo,” “Won’t You Be My Neighbor?” and “Three Identical Strangers.” Celebrated docs “Minding the Gap” and “Generation Wealth” were snubbed.
