SAG Award Nominees: Butler, Blanchett Earn Nods After Golden Globe Win

LOS ANGELES, CA — The time-bending drama "Everything Everywhere All At Once" and the Irish tale of a deteriorating friendship "The Banshees of Inisherin" each scored a leading five nominations Wednesday for the 29th annual Screen Actors Guild Awards.

Both films were nominated in the top category of outstanding ensemble cast in a motion picture, the SAG equivalent of a best picture honor. Also nominated were Steven Spielberg's semi-autobiographical film "The Fabelmans" - - which won a Golden Globe Award for best drama film on Tuesday -- along with "Babylon" and "Women Talking."

"The Banshees of Inisherin" won a Globe on Tuesday for best musical/comedy film.

Austin Butler and Colin Farrell, who both won acting Globes for their respective work in "Elvis" and "Banshees," were both nominated for the SAG Award for best actor, along with Brendan Fraser for "The Whale," Bill Nighy for "Living" and Adam Sandler for "Hustle."

Globe winners Cate Blanchett ("Tár") and Michelle Yeoh ("Everything Everywhere All At Once") were nominated for best actress. Also nominated in the category were Viola Davis for "The Woman King," Ana de Armas for "Blonde" and Danielle Deadwyler for "Till."

The SAG nominations were announced in an Instagram livestream by actors Ashley Park and Haley Lu Richardson. The organization also announced that the Feb. 26 SAG Awards show will be broadcast on Netflix's YouTube channel. Beginning next year, the SAG Awards -- which were previously televised on TBS/TNT -- will be livestreamed on Netflix.

"We are thrilled to embark on this exciting new partnership with Netflix and we look forward to expanding the global audience for our show," SAG-AFTRA National Executive Director Duncan Crabtree-Ireland said in a statement. "As the only televised awards program exclusively honoring the performances of actors, whose work is admired by millions of fans, the SAG Awards are a unique and cherished part of the entertainment universe."

The ceremony will be held at the Fairmont Century Plaza in Century City.

The SAG Awards are often considered by performers as being among the most cherished Hollywood honors, because they are voted upon and awarded exclusively by other actors. The awards are also strong predictors of who will win on Oscar night.
