The post “WandaVision” Tops the 2021 MTV Movie & TV Awards Nominations appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>WandaVision was a bona fide smash hit for Disney+, and its MTV nominations further confirm its popularity. It topped the list with a total of five nods, including best show, best performance in a show (Elizabeth Olsen), best hero (Teyonah Parris), best villain (Kathryn Hahn), and best fight.
The list of major contenders in the television field also includes Emily in Paris and The Boys. Both shows scored a total of four nominations, including the best show. Bridgerton and The Mandalorian were right behind, with three nominations each.
When it comes to the movie categories Borat Subsequent Moviefilm led the way with three nominations. It’s in the running for the best movie award, where it’s competing against Judas and the Black Messiah, Promising Young Woman, Soul, and To All the Boys: Always and Forever.
The 2021 MTV Movie & TV Awards will take place on May 16th at the Palladium in Los Angeles, and the rest of the details about the ceremony are yet to be announced.

]]>The post “Promising Young Woman” and “Borat 2” Win Big at the WGA Awards appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>Promising Young Woman is currently the front-runner for the same award at the Oscars, where it will be competing against several movies it defeated at WGA Awards. Borat Subsequent Moviefilm also received an Academy Award nod for the best-adapted screenplay, and it will be up against The Father, Nomadland, The White Tiger, and One Night in Miami.
When it comes to TV categories, The Crown once again led the way, and it was named the best drama series. It was also a great night for Apple TV’s rookie sitcom Ted Lasso, which won a total of two awards—best comedy series and best new series.
The list of major winners also included The Dissident (best documentary screenplay), Mrs. America (best long-form series – original), and The Queen’s Gambit (best long-form series – adapted).
The 73rd Writers Guild of America Awards took place on March 21st, and they’re often a great indicator of future winners in writing categories at the Oscars.
