The SAG Awards, which will be available to stream Monday on HBO Max, are presented by the Hollywood actors guild SAG-AFTRA. It’s indicative to me that I will not be the last, and that’s the important part.” “It’s an honor to be seen, it’s an honor to be an Afro-Latina, an openly queer woman of color, a dancer, a singer, and an actor. “It’s indicative that doors are opening,” said DeBose, speaking to reports in a virtual backstage media room. DeBose’s award, too, had historic resonance. Meanwhile, Ariana DeBose of “West Side Story” confirmed her frontrunner status with a win Sunday for best supporting performance by a female actor. Heading into the Oscars on March 27, no category may be more uncertain. Yet it was Jessica Chastain, who plays the infamous televangelist in “The Eyes of Tammy Faye,” who won Sunday, notching her first individual SAG award. Kristen Stewart of “Spencer” was passed over by SAG, while Lady Gaga (“House of Gucci”) missed with the film academy. In an especially competitive category, those snubbed have often drawn the most focus. Many have seen Olivia Colman (“The Lost Daughter”) as the favorite to win her second Oscar. “That may have been one of the greatest moments of my career just now because my name was called for ‘King Richard’ sitting next to Venus Williams,” beamed Smith.īest actress has been more difficult category to track. Smith took best actor, scoring his first SAG award. SAG’s track record may also mean Will Smith, star of the Williams family tennis drama “King Richard,” is heading for his first Oscar. Though the actors guild and the academy diverged last year when Aaron Sorkin’s 1960s courtroom drama“Trial of the Chicago 7” topped the SAG Awards and “Nomadland” triumphed at the Oscars, the win for “CODA” suggests it’s a major threat to win best picture over Kenneth Branagh’s “Belfast” (which went winless Sunday) and Jane Campion’s leading Oscar nominee “The Power of the Dog” (which failed to get an ensemble nod even though three of its actors were individually nominated). In 2020, when the cast of “Parasite” and Brad Pitt won, they matched exactly. Actors make up the largest percentage of the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences, and their picks often align. The SAG Awards are considered one of the most reliable predictors of the Academy Awards.
“The people in Russia who don’t like what’s going on - and particularly the artists - I think we should join and celebrate them and hope that they can make a shift, as I believe they can,” said Cox while the audience stood and applauded. He urged censored dissenters in Russia to speak out. In the evening’s bluntest remarks on the invasion, he noted that the president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, was a comic - and thus a fellow performer. But Cox turned serious when discussing Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Cox fittingly accepted the award with an expletive printed on his face mask, and another uttered as he struggled to take it off.

Still, HBO’s “Succession” ultimately reigned in the best drama series category. “I have sat many a times watching you on the big screen dreaming of one day becoming an actor,” Jung told the crowd, fighting back tears.
Those wins came over the likes of “Succession” stars Brian Cox and Jeremy Strong, and Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston of “The Morning Show.” Netflix’s “Squid Game,” the first non-English language series nominated by the actors guild, came on strong with three awards, including Lee Jung-jae for best male actor in a drama series and Jung Hoyeon for best female actor in a drama series. On stage, he thanked his wife for “reminding me to check my fly before walking the red carpet.” When his name was read, the 53-year-old veteran actor plunged his head into his hands. Kotsur won best supporting actor Sunday, becoming the first deaf actor win an individual SAG award. Matlin is the only deaf actor to win an Oscar, buther “CODA” co-star, Kotsur,may be in line to join her. We look forward to more opportunities for deaf actors,” said Matlin on stage before teaching the crowd sign language for “I love you.”
“This validates the fact that we, deaf actors, can work just like anybody else. The film has been seen asa watershed moment for the deaf community in Hollywood. It culminated with “CODA,” Sian Heder’s heartwarming Apple TV+ coming-of-age film featuring a trio of deaf actors in Marlee Matlin, Troy Kotsur and Daniel Durant, along with newcomer Emilia Jones, winning best ensemble. The ceremony, held Sunday at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California, and broadcast on both TNT and TBS, was notably border-breaking, with historic wins for deaf actors, Korean stars and some of Hollywood’s biggest names. In an upset, the deaf family drama “CODA” took top honors at an unpredictable and history-making 28th Screen Actors Guild Awardsthat also saw wins for the leads of “Squid Game,” the cast of “Ted Lasso” and Will Smith.
