Summary
- Netflix's Actor Awards is the new replacement for the SAG Awards.
- The ceremony serves as the final data point before the Oscars.
- Foreign-language film actors were excluded from SAG nominations.
The Screen Actors Guild Awards have been superseded by Netflix's Actor Awards, hosted by Kristen Bell. This new ceremony is a significant stop on the awards circuit, offering the final performance data before the Oscars on March 15. A notable exclusion from this year's SAG categories were actors from foreign-language films that received Oscar nominations. Films like 'Sentimental Value' and 'The Secret Agent,' recognized with Best Picture and acting nominations, were overlooked by the Screen Actors Guild. The focus has shifted to English-speaking performances.
The awards recognized excellence in film, with 'Frankenstein' winning Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture. Timothée Chalamet received the award for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role for 'Marty Supreme,' while Emma Stone won for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role for 'Bugonia.' 'One Battle After Another' secured the Outstanding Performance by a Stunt Ensemble in a Motion Picture award.
In television, 'Severance' took home Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series. For comedy, 'Abbott Elementary' was honored with Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series. Sterling K. Brown won for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Drama Series for 'Paradise,' and Kathryn Hahn received the award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Comedy Series for 'The Studio.' Harrison Ford was presented with the Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award.
