‘Wonder Woman,’ ‘Get Out,’ ‘The Big Sick’ Get Producers Guild Nomination
A busy week of awards and nominations continues with the Producers Guild of America choices for the Daryl F. Zanuck Award.
The expected contenders of Dunkirk, The Shape of Water, Call Me by Your Name and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri were joined by surprise contender Wonder Woman.

The list was rounded out by The Big Sick, Get Out, I, Tonya, Lady Bird, Molly’s Game and The Post. A tie led to there being 11 nominees for the first time.
The PGA has predicted the Best Picture winner at the Oscars 19 times in its 28 years. The choices were notably different last year with the PGA choosing La La Land and the Oscar going to Moonlight.
Despite its $821 million box office, Wonder Woman hasn’t received much attention this awards season. Among comic book movies, Logan has gotten a few nods, including a Writers Guild nomination for adapted screenplay.
In the animated feature category the nominees are The Boss Baby, Coco, Despicable Me 3, Ferdinand and The Lego Batman Movie.
Winners will be announced Saturday, Jan. 20 at the Beverly Hilton in LA. Ava DuVernay, Ryan Murphy and Get Out are among the special honorees.
