Nomadland took home the top honor at the 32nd Producers Guild of America Awards on Wednesday. The Chloé Zhao-directed film won the Darryl F. Zanuck Award for Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Pictures over Judas and the Black Messiah, Mank, and The Trial of the Chicago 7, among other fellow Best Picture nominees.
“In a year when we have been living such isolated lives, we were proud to make a movie about community and what connects us,” producer Peter Spears said during his acceptance speech. “You honor the entire Nomadland company with this award.”
As noted by Variety, the PGA Awards is “one of the key indicators for the Academy Awards, particularly the best picture category.” Over the past decade, the same movie has won both the Darryl F. Zanuck Award and Best Picture seven times:
