The Producers Guild of America has announced the complete list of nominations for the 2022’s PGA Awards. The list confirms how streaming keeps growing as one of Hollywood’s major platforms, as Netflix scored three of the ten nominations for the prize of Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Pictures.
The PGA Awards honors the producers of some of the year’s most relevant feature films, TV shows, and documentaries. Set in the middle of awards season, the PGA Awarda are usually a good thermometer for the Oscars race, highlighting movies that are perceived as the best productions of the year. That’s great news for Netflix, as the streaming giant has three features in the main category of the PGA Awards: star-studded satire Don’t Look Up, musical drama tick, tick...BOOM!, and the Benedict Cumberbatch-led Western The Power of the Dog. Other feature films fighting for the highest honor include Dune, CODA, Belfast, Being the Ricardos, King Richard, Licorice Pizza, and Steven Spielberg's West Side Story.
Disney still reigns supreme on the animation side of the nominations, with three features: Encanto, Raya and the Last Dragon, and Pixar’s Luca. Netflix’s The Mitchells vs. The Machines is also in the race, with Illumination’s Sing 2closing out the nominations list. As for television, different categories honor fan-favorite shows such as WandaVision, Ted Lasso, and Squid Games.
