The Producers Guild of America has just released its list of movie and TV nominations for the upcoming 36th annual Producers Guild Awards. The PGA Awards ceremony is set for February 25 at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles.
As part of their announcement the PGA stated, “Earlier this week, the Producers Guild announced a partnership with the Entertainment Community Fund to establish a dedicated fund supporting producers of film, television and emerging media affected by the fires. The Guild is contributing a portion of the net proceeds from the Producers Guild Awards to the fund. In addition to the Guild’s contribution, members are also donating. Together, $300,000 has already been committed.
If there is a producer in need of financial assistance from the devastation caused by the fires, they can provide their contact information and eligibility criteria will be sent: https://producersguild.tfaforms.net/5133847
For anyone able to contribute to supporting producers who are struggling financially due to the fires, a donation site has been started here: entertainmentcommunity.org/2025CAfiresPGA.”
