Promising Young Woman, Borat Subsequent Moviefilm Walk Away Winners From WGA Awards - Vulture

Awards season continued apace on Sunday with the first-ever bicoastal Writers’ Guild Awards, presented by newly-minted WGA member Kal Penn. “I am so proud to be hosting the first WGA ceremony that is being presented jointly by both the Writers’ Guild East and the Writers’ Guild West,” he said in his monologue. “We’ve combined the two shows, because, despite all our differences, the one thing we can agree on is: the world does not need another extra awards show. So, instead of having multiple shows, we just figured it’d be more efficient to combine them into one. Who says we’re against packaging?”

As for the evening’s awards, Emerald Fennell’s Promising Young Woman received the accolade for Original Screenplay, while Borat Subsequent Moviefilm’s Sacha Baron Cohen and his many collaborators received the same for Adapted Screenplay. Over in the television categories, Ted Lasso took home Best Comedy Series and Best New Series, while this year’s Drama Series Award went to The Crown.
