The WGA Awards have been typically held before the Academy Awards. However, due to the strikes last year, the ceremony will now be held on April 14, over a month after the Oscars, Deadline reported.

The Writers Guild of America also has different eligibility requirements from the film academy so some movie script favorites won't be showing up in the list of nominations.

While both the WGA and the Oscars mostly agree on the Original Screenplay nods, having nominated The Holdovers, May December and Past Lives, the guild also included Air and not Anatomy of a Fall and Maestro, which the academy did.

One big script contention last year was Barbie. The Oscars didn't include it in the Original list, opting to place it under the adapted category. However, the guild decided that Barbie belonged under the originals.

With all that said, here are the nominees for the 2024 WGA Awards.
