The 26th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards nominations were broadcast early Wednesday morning on Dec. 11 at the Pacific Design Center’s SilverScreen Theater in West Hollywood.

 

The SAG Awards nominations kicked off with SAG Awards Committee Chair JoBeth Williams and SAG Awards Committee Member Elizabeth McLaughlin announcing this year’s nominees for stunt ensemble action performance. Among those nominated in the category were “Avengers: Endgame” and “Joker”. It was the first of four nominations for Quentin Tarantino’s “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” and one of three for Martin Scorsese’s “The Irishman”.

 

SAG-AFTRA President Gabrielle Carteris took the stage to introduce “Superstone” star America Ferrera and “Black Panther” star Danai Gurira, who was on hand to help with the nomination announcements. Fittingly so, as this is the only award show for actors by actors.

 

At this year’s award that will air live on TNT and TBS, Academy Award-winning actor and a nominee for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role, Leonardo DiCaprio will present the SAG Life Achievement Award to two-time Oscar-winning actor, producer, and director Robert De Niro. The two have co-starred in several films together and will share the special moment during the Awards.

 

Other notable nominations this year include Cynthia Erivo (“Harriet”) and Lupita Nyong’o (“Us”) both up for Female Actor in a Leading Role in a Motion Picture; Jamie Foxx getting the nod for Male Actor in a Supporting Role in a Motion Picture for his role in “Just Mercy”.

 

In 2018, Sterling K. Brown made history by becoming the first Black actor to take home the Actor for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Drama Series for “This Is Us”. He was nominated again last year and was announced that he will be in the running for Male Actor in a Drama Series alongside Steve Carell and Billy Crudup for “The Morning Show”, David Harbour “Stranger Things” and Peter Dinklage for “Game of Thrones”.

 

Also, three-time SAG Award-winning actor Mahershala Ali has been nominated for the first time in the category of Male Actor in a Television Movie or Limited Series for his role in “True Detective”.

 

All of the winners for the 26th Annual SAG Awards will be announced live from the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles simulcast on TNT and TBS on Sunday, Jan. 19, 2020 at 8 p.m. ET/ 5 p.m. PT.
