Writers Guild 2020 Nominations: JOKER, PARASITE, 1917, IRISHMAN, KNIVES OUT and More (Complete List)

Writers Guild Awards 2020 Nominations

The nominations for the WGA's 2020 Writers Guild Awards have been announced. The nominees in the feature categories include "1917", "Joker", "The Irishman", "Knives Out", "Booksmart", "Parasite", "Marriage Story", A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood" and "Jojo Rabbit". Among the snubbed we find Quentin Tarantino ("Once Upon a Time in Hollywood"), who is not eligible for the WGA because he is not a member of the guild, and Lulu Wang's "The Farewell", which was also not produced under jurisdiction of WGA or an affiliate guild.

In the television categories the shows nominated this year include "The Crown, The Handmaid's Tale", "Mindhunter", "Succession", "Watchmen", "Veep", "Barry", "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel", "PEN15", and "Russian Doll".

Read the complete list of 2020 Writers Guild Awards nominees after the jump.
