Writers Guild Awards: And the winners are …
Get Out, Will & Grace, and The Handmaid’s Tale were some of the big winners at Sunday’s Writers Guild Awards.
WGA members vote for the best writing from films and TV of the past year. The screenplay winners, in particular, are often a harbinger for who may win at the Academy Awards, which will air March 4 on ABC. Here are some of the night’s victors at the awards ceremony, held simultaneously in Los Angeles (where Patton Oswalt hosted) and New York.
