Oscars 2020: Predicting All The Nominees

By Jack Pooley / January 11, 2020

5. Adapted Screenplay

Looking back at the WGA nominations, which have historically been a strong predictor for the Oscars, there's virtually no chance The Irishman, Jojo Rabbit, Joker, and Little Women don't make the cut.

That fifth slot is a toss-up between The Two Popes and A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, with the WGA ultimately giving it to the latter.

Though given The Two Popes' recent Netflix release, it was probably fresher in voters' minds right up to the voting deadline, so we're taking a chance on that.

Nominees:

The Irishman

Jojo Rabbit

Joker

Little Women

The Two Popes
