Awards season is hurtling towards its glitzy finale, with the Academy Awards coming up on Sunday, February 9.
But, before the golden statues are handed out, some of the industry's most notable directors came together to fete the year's best work behind the camera at the annual Directors Guild Awards.
Held in Los Angeles on Saturday, January 25, the ceremony celebrated directors of both the big and small screen, handing out gongs for both film and TV work.
The DGAs are typically seen as a fairly robust indicator of who will take home the Academy Award for Best Director, having foreshadowed the accolade for the past six years.
Scroll through the gallery above to see the best red carpet pictures from the Directors Guild Awards 2020.
Among the stars walking the red carpet at LA's Ritz-Carlton was New Zealand filmmaker Taika Waititi, whose Jojo Rabbit is up for several Oscars, as well as British director Sam Mendes, whose war epic 1917 has also garnered several Academy Award nods.

Dubai works towards better air quality by 2021
Dubai is on a mission to record good air quality for 90 per cent of the year – up from 86 per cent annually today – by 2021.
The municipality plans to have seven mobile air-monitoring stations by 2020 to capture more accurate data in hourly and daily trends of pollution.
These will be on the Palm Jumeirah, Al Qusais, Muhaisnah, Rashidiyah, Al Wasl, Al Quoz and Dubai Investment Park.
“It will allow real-time responding for emergency cases,” said Khaldoon Al Daraji, first environment safety officer at the municipality.
“We’re in a good position except for the cases that are out of our hands, such as sandstorms.
“Sandstorms are our main concern because the UAE is just a receiver.
“The hotspots are Iran, Saudi Arabia and southern Iraq, but we’re working hard with the region to reduce the cycle of sandstorm generation.”
Mr Al Daraji said monitoring as it stood covered 47 per cent of Dubai.
There are 12 fixed stations in the emirate, but Dubai also receives information from monitors belonging to other entities.
“There are 25 stations in total,” Mr Al Daraji said.
“We added new technology and equipment used for the first time for the detection of heavy metals.
“A hundred parameters can be detected but we want to expand it to make sure that the data captured can allow a baseline study in some areas to ensure they are well positioned.”
