The Producers Guild of America Award for Outstanding Producer of Animated Theatrical Motion Pictures is an award annually given since 2005.

Of all fifteen films awarded, eleven have gone on to win the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature. Disney and Pixar’s Toy Story is the first and to date only franchise with multiple wins, thanks to Toy Story 3 (2010) and Toy Story 4 (2019).

Information

Before the Producers Guild of America handed the first outstanding award on animation, animated films competed against live-action films in the Best Theatrical Motion Picture category. Two animated films were nominated in that category:

2001 – Shrek (lost to Moulin Rouge!)
2004 – The Incredibles (lost to The Aviator)

Since the inception of the Best Animated Motion Picture award, animated films can still be nominated for Best Theatrical Motion Picture. Two animated films were nominated since 2005:

2009 – Up (lost to The Hurt Locker)
2010 – Toy Story 3 (lost to The King's Speech)

Notes

Eleven out of fifteen PGA-winning animated films won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.
Two PGA-winning animated films were not nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature: The Adventures of Tintin (2011) and The Lego Movie (2014). The Adventures of Tintin was not nominated as it was ineligible by using motion capture as its technique; the Academy rules do not consider motion capture as an animation technique.[16] (The Lego Movie was eventually nominated for Best Original Song)
2008 is the only year when the nominees and eventual winner matched correctly.[17]
