Last night in Beverly Hills, the Directors Guild of America held their annual award ceremony honoring directors in both film and television. Guillermo del Toro took home the big prize for his work on The Shape of Water, while Jordan Peele received the award for Best First-Time Director for Get Out. Winners for television included Bethany McCarthy-Miller for Veep and Reed Morano for The Handmaid's Tale, which some would say was a bit of surprise considering directors Jeremy Podeswa, Matt Shakman, and Alan Taylor were all nominated for three separate episodes of Game of Thrones in that category.

We've got the full list of winners below, including directors who took home awards for their work on variety shows, news, sports, and reality programs. Check it out below:
