The Directors Guild of America revealed its feature film nominees Thursday for the 78th DGA Awards, with the helmers behind awards-season stalwarts One Battle After Another, Sinners, Frankenstein, Marty Supreme and Hamnet scoring noms in the Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Theatrical Feature Film category. The Theatrical Feature Film nominations mark the first full DGA nom ever for Sinners‘ Ryan Coogler and Marty Supreme‘s Josh Safdie, and the second for Hamnet‘s Chloé Zhao, who won the honor in 2021 for her eventual Oscar Best Picture winner Nomadland. It’s also just the second nom for Del Toro, after he won in 2018 for his also eventual Oscar Best Picture winner The Shape of Water. Anderson was previously nominated for There Will Be Blood and Licorice Pizza, and he is coming off a Best Director win at the Critics Choice Awards. Today’s feature film announcement includes nominees for the DGA’s First Time Theatrical Feature award, a list that includes Ava Victor for Sorry, Baby, Hasan Hadi for Iraq’s Oscar submission The President’s Cake, Harry Lighton for Pillion, Charlie Polinger for The Plague, and Alex Russell for Lurker. See the full list of noms below, which follow Wednesday’s noms for TV, Docs and Commercials directing.
