The spotlight shifts from the Golden Globes to the SAG Awards as the curtain rises on awards season. With over 119,000 actors flexing their voting power in SAG-AFTRA, these awards are stealing the show as a powerful predictor of imminent Oscars glory. As the SAG Award Nominee list becomes public, fans are eager to see who takes the plaque home.
SAG-AFTRA is the screen actor’s guild that made headlines with a blockbuster strike last year. No surprise, Barbenheimer remains an unstoppable force, appearing four times on the SAG Award Nomination list. With four nominations each, both appeared in film and stunt categories.
The SAG Award Nominees this year have all had an outstanding run, appearing in blockbusters and giving us their best shot. Meanwhile, the HBO hit “Succession” will claim its position in the final season, leading with five nominations. The stellar cast, including Brian Cox, Matthew Macfadyen, and Kieran Culkin, boasts three best-actor nods.
In the highly contested category of Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role, we have Bradley Cooper in “Maestro.” Likewise, Colman Domingo in “Rustin” and Paul Giamatti in “The Holdovers” earn recognition for their outstanding performance.
