On Tuesday, the Producers Guild of America’s award nominations were announced; today it was the Writers Guild’s turn.
Most notable among the nominations for the year’s best screenplays are Steven Zaillian — nominated twice for his adapted Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and Moneyball scripts (the latter of which he co-wrote with Aaron Sorkin) — and Woody Allen‘s 20th career nomination, this time for his original screenplay to Midnight in Paris.
The WGA will hold a ceremony on Feb. 19. Read on for the full list of nominees.
