25th Art Directors Guild Nominations Unveiled

The nominations have been unveiled for the Art Directors Guild‘s 25th ADG Excellence in Production Design Awards. The awards are seen as a strong indicator for the eventual winner of Best Production Design at the Academy Awards, given the winner of one of the three ADG categories has won the Oscar every year for the past seven years.

Noticeably absent from the Period Feature Film category are lavish British productions Emma. and The Personal History of David Copperfield, which is a huge dent in their Oscar campaigns.

The winners will be announced in a virtual ceremony on April 10.
