Tim's 25th Annual SAG Award Picks

Award Season roles on tonight with the 25th Annual SAG Awards LIVE from the Shrine Auditorium here in Los Angeles, hosted by one of my favorite people, Megan Mullally!


Tonight's award winners usually help give us an idea of the top contenders to win the Oscar in a few weeks. The "Best Picture" category here does leave it up for some questions though as it's for best cast, not best picture.  There is some really stiff competition tonight and I can't wait to see who wins. Here are my picks for this year's SAG Awards.

Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role

Rami Malek, “Bohemian Rhapsody”


Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role

Glenn Close, “The Wife”


Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Supporting Role

Mahershala Ali, “Green Book”


Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role

Amy Adams, “Vice”


Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture

“Black Panther”

This may come as a surprise that I am picking Black Panther in this category. The other film I could see come in and take this would be Crazy Rich Asians. Where this category is for an entire cast, it's different than selecting Best Picture for the Golden Globes or Oscars. Of all of the nominess, Black Panther had the most outstanding full cast performance in my opinion. 


Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Television Movie or Miniseries

Darren Criss, “Assassination of Gianni Versace”
 

Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Television Movie or Miniseries:

Patricia Arquette, “Escape at Dannemora”


Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Drama Series:

Sterling K. Brown, “This Is Us”

Great category! I could see just about anybody win this, but other then Sterling K. Brown, I could see Jason Bateman as a winner here. 


Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Drama Series:

Sandra Oh, “Killing Eve”


Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Comedy Series:

Bill Hader, “Barry”

I'm kind of surprised by Hader's Golden Globe loss. I'm expecting to see the Emmy Winner pick up a SAG here. 


Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Comedy Series:

Rachel Brosnahan, “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel”

This category is owned by Rachel Brosnahan at this point. It would be a shock if anybody else was to win. 


Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series:

“This Is Us” 

I could see the cast of Ozark take this too. That show is highly underated and deserves some love. 


Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series:

“The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel”

Some of the best TV is in this category and is possibly the stiffest competition tonight. I would be surprised to see anybody knock out The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel though. 


Outstanding Action Performance by a Stunt Ensemble in a Comedy or Drama Series:

“Marvel’s: Daredevil”


Outstanding Action Performance by a Stunt Ensemble in a Motion Picture:

“Avengers: Infinity War”

The SAG Awards will be LIVE at 5PM EST on TBS & TNT. Tune in!
