The Writers Guild of America has announced its motion picture nominees for the 74th Annual Writers Guild Awards, which will take place on Sunday, March 20.

Apple’s CODA continued its hot streak on Thursday, adding an Adapted Screenplay nomination to the PGA Award nod it received earlier in the day.

The original screenplay category boasts several heavy hitters, including Paul Thomas Anderson (Licorice Pizza), Wes Anderson (The French Dispatch), Adam McKay (Don’t Look Up) and Aaron Sorkin (Being the Ricardos), but King Richard scribe Zach Baylin is certainly poised for an upset.
