NEW YORK (AP) โ€” Christopher Nolan, Greta Gerwig and Martin Scorsese have been nominated by the Directors Guild for its top award.

The nominations to the 76th DGA Awards, which followed those by the Screen Actors Guild earlier Wednesday, went as expected. The other two nominees for the guild's top award, for outstanding directorial achievement, are Alexander Payne for โ€œThe Holdovers" and Yorgos Lanthimos for โ€œPoor Things.โ€

Nolan's nomination, for โ€œOppenheimer,โ€ is his fifth DGA nod though he's never won before. Gerwig, nominated for โ€œBarbie,โ€ was previously nominated for 2017's โ€œLady Bird.โ€ Scorsese's nomination for โ€œKillers of the Flower Moonโ€ is his 13th DGA nod; he has previously won for 2006's โ€œThe Departedโ€ and for the series โ€œBoardwalk Empire.โ€

The Directors Guild nominees often closely align with those of the Academy Awards. Over the past two decades, the winner of the DGA award has nearly always also triumphed at the Oscars. Last year, Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert won both awards for โ€œEverything Everywhere All at Once.โ€

The DGA's nominees for first-time feature filmmaker went to Cord Jefferson for โ€œAmerican Fiction,โ€ Manuela Martelli for "Chile '76"," Noora Niasari for โ€œShayda,โ€ A.V. Rockwell for โ€œA Thousand and Oneโ€ and Celine Song for โ€œPast Lives.โ€

The guild earlier on Tuesday announced other categories. The DGA nominations for best documentary are: โ€œ20 Days in Mariupol,โ€ โ€œBobi Wine: The Peopleโ€™s President,โ€ โ€œBeyond Utopia,โ€ โ€œKokomo City" and โ€œStill: A Michael J. Fox Movie." HBOโ€™s โ€œSuccessionโ€ led the TV nominations, with four out of five nominations for direction.

76th annual DGA Awards will be held Feb. 10.
