'Selma,' 'Unbroken' Snubbed By Producers Guild Awards

'Selma' Snubbed By Producers Guild Awards

The Producers Guild of America announced its nominees for The Darryl F. Zanuck Award for Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Pictures on Monday, leaving presumed Oscar contenders "Selma," "Unbroken," "Interstellar" and "Into the Woods" empty handed. Since 1995's "Braveheart," no Best Picture winner at the Academy Awards has failed to secure a PGA nomination. (According to In Contention editor Kris Tapley, screeners for either "Selma" or "Interstellar" were not readily made available.)

In place of those films were some surprises: Clint Eastwood's "American Sniper" -- which continues to rake in cash in a limited release -- scored a PGA nomination, as did indie sensations "Nightcrawler" and "Whiplash." Oscar heavyweights "Boyhood," "Birdman," "The Imitation Game" and "The Theory of Everything" were also cited. The full list of nominees is below:
