"The guild's awards, formerly known as the SAG Awards, are one of the most closely watched Oscar precursors. Actors make up the largest slice of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and their choices at the Actor Awards often align."
"The victory for Ryan Coogler's blues-soaked vampire saga showed that it has a strong chance to win at the Oscars, too, despite an almost unblemished run of awards for Paul Thomas Anderson's "One Battle After Another." It's won at the Golden Globes, the Producers Guild Awards, the BAFTAs and the Directors Guild Awards."
"Michael B. Jordan also won best male actor, upsetting the category favorite, Timothée Chalamet, and handing the 39-year-old Jordan the most significant prize of his acclaimed career. Even Jordan looked shocked as the audience rose to its feet and Viola Davis, the award's presenter, celebrated."
At the 32nd Screen Actors Guild Awards, Ryan Coogler's "Sinners" claimed best ensemble, challenging the previously dominant "One Battle After Another" in the Oscar race. The SAG Awards, closely watched as Oscar precursors, proved influential as actors comprise the Academy's largest voting bloc. Michael B. Jordan upset favorite Timothée Chalamet to win best male actor, marking his most significant career achievement. Jessie Buckley won best female actor for "Hamnet." Coogler became the first filmmaker to direct two ensembles to the guild's top prize, following his 2019 "Black Panther" victory. The ceremony, streamed on Netflix from Los Angeles, set up a competitive two-week countdown to the Academy Awards.
