The feature film nominees at the DGAs were almost identical to the Best Director nominees at the Oscars, with winner Jane Campion (“The Power of the Dog”) competing against Paul Thomas Anderson (“Licorice Pizza”), Steven Spielberg (“West Side Story”), and Kenneth Branagh (“Belfast”. The only difference is that the DGAs swapped in Denis Villeneuve (“Dune”) for Ryûsuke Hamaguchi (“Drive My Car”).

On the television side, “Succession” and “Ted Lasso” have absolutely dominated the nominations. “Ted Lasso” directors picked up three of the five nominations for Outstanding Directorial Achievement in a Comedy Series, while all five TV drama nominees are “Succession” directors, with Mark Mylod ultimately winning.

The DGA Awards are often an excellent predictor of the Best Director Oscar, with many of the most recent winners picking up the DGA trophy before going on to Oscar gold. Recent Oscar winners to also win the DGA Award include Chloe Zhao for “Nomadland,” Alfonso Cuarón for “Roma,” Guillermo del Toro for “The Shape of Water,” Damien Chazelle for “La La Land,” and Alejandro G. Iñárritu for “The Revenant” and “Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance).” The only major outlier in recent years is Bong Joon-ho, who lost to Sam Mendes at the DGAs before going on to win the Best Director Oscar for “Parasite.” It remains to be seen whether Campion will continue the tradition.
