2021 SAG Awards Nominees - The Complete List

The 2021 Screen Actors Guild Awards were announced Thursday morning by Lily Collins (“Mank,” “Emily in Paris”) and Daveed Diggs (“Hamilton,” “Snowpiercer”) on the SAG Awards’ Instagram page, after a few technical hiccups.

The films leading the way in the outstanding performance by a cast in a motion picture are “Da 5 Bloods,” “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom,” “Minari,” “One Night in Miami” and “The Trial of the Chicago 7.”

Unlike the Golden Globes nominations, which were announced yesterday, Spike Lee’s Da 5 Bloods garnered two nods, one for Outstanding Ensemble and for Outstanding Supporting Actor for the late Chadwick Boseman. Boseman also became a double nominee for his performance in Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, which netted a nod in the Outstanding Actor in a Motion Picture category. Also getting attention was Netflix’s Bridgerton and its star Rege Jean Page for Outstanding Actor in a Drama Series. The series was overlooked by the Golden Globes. With Da 5 Bloods, One Night in Miami and Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom nominated in the Outstanding Ensemble category, it’s the second time three films with a predominant Black cast made the cut. In 2016, the cast of Hidden Figuers, Fences and Moonlight. Hidden Figures won the SAG Awards but Moonlight went on to win Best Picture at the Oscars.

As a result of the pandemic, the SAG Awards, typically held in January, shifted back a few months to April 4. The ceremony will air on TNT and TBS at 6 p.m. PT/9 p.m. ET.

Here are the categories being announced this morning.
