After an eventful Spirit Awards, the industry’s attention shifted to Hollywood and the Ray Dolby Ballroom where the 2024 PGA Awards were handed out. The big winner, obviously, was Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer” which took Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Poctures. On the television side, “The Bear,” “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” “Welcome to Wrexham,” and “Succession” were among the big winners.
oh, and “Beef” of course.
