“Wicked” led this year’s nominations for the Screen Actors Guild Awards, which were announced Wednesday morning. The announcement was supposed to take place live but the organization said that out of concern for the spreading wildfires in Los Angeles, the nominations would be relayed by news release instead.
Though “Wicked” underperformed at the Golden Globes on Sunday, picking up just one award for box office achievement, it led the SAG field with five nominations, claiming individual recognition for lead actress Cynthia Erivo, supporting actress Ariana Grande and supporting actor Jonathan Bailey, as well as nominations for stunt ensemble and cast.
Still, if any film overperformed Wednesday, it was the indie “The Last Showgirl,” which scored unexpected nominations for stars Pamela Anderson and Jamie Lee Curtis. In the lead-actress category, Anderson beat out the likes of Angelina Jolie (“Maria”) and Nicole Kidman (“Babygirl”) to secure a nomination, while Curtis found footing in a competitive supporting-actress race that had no room for the likes of Isabella Rossellini (“Conclave”) or Felicity Jones (“The Brutalist”).
Last year, all five SAG nominees for lead actor were also nominated at the Oscars while the other acting categories went four for five, with Sandra Hüller (“Anatomy of a Fall”), Mark Ruffalo (“Poor Things”) and America Ferrera (“Barbie”) overcoming their SAG snubs to earn Oscar nominations. But it is very rare that an actor goes on to win the Oscar without first being nominated by their own guild.
The prizes, including a Life Achievement Award for Jane Fonda, will be handed out Feb. 23, live on Netflix, with Kristen Bell as host.
