The Directors Guild of America nominated five directors in total, including Martin Scorsese for “Killers of the Flower Moon,” Yorgos Lanthimos for “Poor Things” and Alexander Payne for “The Holdovers.” “In a year full of so many extraordinary films, DGA members have nominated an incredible group of gifted storytellers,” Directors Guild of America president Lesli Linka Glatter said in a statement. “Their films fused technical prowess with unique artistic visions that captured the depth of the human experience and left an indelible impact on audiences around the world.
Congratulations to these superb directors on their well-deserved nominations.” The DGA Award nominees are considered to be an important precursor to the Oscars.
Conspicuous absences among this year’s crop include Jonathan Glazer (“The Zone of Interest”), Bradley Cooper (“Maestro”), Justine Triet (“Anatomy of a Fall”) and Celine Song (“Past Lives”), all of whom are contenders in the best director race.
