Breaking Down the Exciting 2024 Screen Actors Guild Awards Nominations: Hollywood’s Finest Recognized in Film and TV

Hollywood actors are getting recognition for their outstanding work in movies and TV shows at the 2024 Screen Actors Guild Awards. Barbie and Oppenheimer lead with four nominations each, including nods for Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling, Cillian Murphy, Robert Downey Jr., and Emily Blunt.

Some surprises and snubs in the film category include Leonardo DiCaprio not getting a nomination for his role in Killers of the Flower Moon and Fantasia Barrino missing out for The Color Purple. Penélope Cruz’s supporting performance in Ferrari was an unexpected nominee.

On the TV side, HBO’s Succession’s final season earned five nominations, with Pedro Pascal, Bella Ramsey from The Last of Us, Quinta Brunson of Abbott Elementary, and stars of Ted Lasso also being major nominees.

Issa Rae and Kumail Nanjiani announced the nominees on Instagram Live. The Screen Actors Guild and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) had a significant year, including a four-month strike from July to November. Fran Drescher, who played a role in leading the guild during the strike, spoke during the announcement.

This year, SAG’s nominations overlap with the Emmys season due to the strike affecting the TV Academy’s schedule. SAG Awards are a crucial part of the awards season leading up to the Oscars, and the winners often align with the Academy’s choices.

Barbra Streisand will receive the 2024 SAG Life Achievement Award at the ceremony on Feb. 24, which will be streamed live on Netflix.
