There are always surprises when the Screen Actors Guild Awards announce their nominations — many are still trying to figure out Naomi Watts’ nod last year for “St. Vincent” — and this morning was no exception. On the film side, Helen Mirren walked away the big winner, with three nominations for her work in “Woman in Gold” (lead actress) and “Trumbo” (supporting actress, ensemble.) And the TV side saw the return of some favorites and a few new additions, including “Mr. Robot” star Rami Malek. As with any awards announcement, there were a few snubs and surprises, which we look at below.
The SAG Awards are the only major awards show that honor only actors, and are voted on by fellow actors, SAG-aftra members. The 22nd Screen Actors Guild Awards will air on TNT/TBS on Jan. 30 at 8 p.m. Est.
