The smash-hit musical 'Wicked' dominates the nominations for the 31st Screen Actors Guild Awards, securing five nods including best ensemble and individual recognition for its stars. The awards were announced via press release due to wildfires in Los Angeles and Southern California.
Wicked led the nominations for the 31st Screen Actors Guild Awards on Wednesday, securing five nods including best ensemble. The musical also earned individual recognition for Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande, and Jonathan Bailey. Out-of-control wildfires in Los Angeles and Southern California forced the SAG to cancel its live nomination announcement. Instead, nominations were released via press statement.
The SAG Awards, which now stream on Netflix, are considered a strong predictor of the Academy Awards. Wicked's nominations coincide with its recent win at the National Board of Review Awards. Other nominees for best ensemble include 'Anora,' 'Conclave,' 'Emilia Pérez,' and 'A Complete Unknown.' 'A Complete Unknown,' a Bob Dylan drama, received four nominations, including Timothée Chalamet for best male actor and supporting nods for Edward Norton and Monica Barbaro. Best male lead nominees largely aligned with expectations: Adrien Brody ('The Brutalist'), Daniel Craig ('Queer'), Colman Domingo ('Sing Sing'), Ralph Fiennes ('Conclave'), and Chalamet. Demi Moore, fresh off her Golden Globes win, earned a nomination for best female actor in a leading role for 'The Substance.' She was joined by Erivo, 'Emilia Pérez' star Karla Sofía Gascón, Mikey Madison of 'Anora,' and Pamela Anderson for 'The Last Showgirl.' Notable omissions included Angelina Jolie ('Maria') and Nicole Kidman ('Babygirl'). Acclaimed actresses Marianne Jean-Baptiste ('Hard Truths') and Fernanda Torres ('I'm Still Here') also did not receive nominations
