Producers Guild Awards to nominate 10 films

The Producers Guild of America announced today that it will continue to recognize 10 nominees for its top movie award, the Darryl F. Zanuck Award for Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Pictures. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Science recently tweaked its experiment of 10 Best Picture Oscar nominees, but the PGA, which expanded its slate of honored films to 10 just two years, will maintain its policy.

The Guild’s Board of Directors also approved the addition of several new television categories. Reality television programming will expand to honor three distinct categories: Non-Fiction, Competition and Live Entertainment/Talk. The 23rd Annual Producers Guild Awards will take place on Saturday, Jan. 21, 2012 at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.
