\u201cOne Battle After Another\u201d<\/a>\u00a0dominated nominations to the\u00a0Actor Awards<\/a>\u00a0on Wednesday, with Paul Thomas Anderson\u2019s ragtag revolutionary saga landing a record seven nods in the annual SAG-AFTRA honors.<\/p>\n

In the 31 years of the Actor Awards, formerly known as the SAG Awards, no movie has received more than five nominations. Along with a nod for the guild\u2019s top award, best ensemble, the cast of \u201cOne Battle After Another\u201d was showered with nominations for Leonardo DiCaprio, Chase Infiniti, Teyana Taylor, Sean Penn, Benicio Del Toro and its stunt performers.<\/p>\n

The four other nominees for best ensemble are: \u201cSinners,\u201d \u201cHamnet,\u201d \u201cMarty Supreme\u201d and \u201cFrankenstein.\u201d Usually, to win best picture at the Oscars, a movie needs a SAG ensemble nomination. Only four films in the last three decades have managed the feat without that. Among the films that missed the cut were \u201cSentimental Value,\u201d \u201cWicked: For Good\u201d and \u201cTrain Dreams.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSinners\u201d had an especially good result. Along with a best male actor nod for Michael B. Jordan, supporting actors Miles Canton and Wunmi Mosaku were both nominated.<\/p>\n

Historically, the Actor Awards have been one of the strongest Oscar indicators. Actors make up the largest branch of the film academy, and, in the past, individual SAG nominees have overlapped with the Oscar field at a rate of roughly four out of five. The Actor Awards are presented by the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA).<\/p>\n

That means the nominees Wednesday may closely resemble those headed to the Oscars. They are:<\/p>\n

Best male actor: DiCaprio, Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet (\u201cMarty Supreme\u201d), Michael B. Jordan (\u201cSinners\u201d), Ethan Hawke (\u201cBlue Moon\u201d) and Jesse Plemons (\u201cBugonia\u201d)
\nBest female actor: Infiniti, Jessie Buckley (\u201cHamnet\u201d), Rose Byrne (\u201cIf I Had Legs I\u2019d Kick You\u201d), Kate Hudson (\u201cSong Sung Blue\u201d) and Emma Stone (\u201cBugonia\u201d)
\nBest supporting male actor: Del Toro, Penn, Canton, Jacob Elordi (\u201cFrankenstein\u201d) and Paul Mescal (\u201cHamnet\u201d)
\nBest supporting female actor: Taylor, Mosaku, Ariana Grande (\u201cWicked: For Good\u201d), Amy Madigan (\u201cWeapons\u201d) and Odessa A\u2019zion (\u201cMarty Supreme\u201d)<\/p>\n

Snubbed altogether was Joachim Trier\u2019s acclaimed Norwegian drama \u201cSentimental Value.\u201d Both Renate Reinsve, in lead female actor, and Stellan Skarsg\u00e5rd, for supporting male actor, have been viewed as shoo-ins. Many analysts have considered Skarsg\u00e5rd the favorite to win. With more than 122,000 voting members, SAG-AFTRA has tended to skew more populist and the guild sometimes shies away from non-English language nominees.<\/p>\n

The Actor Awards will take place Sunday, March 1, at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. Netflix will stream the ceremony live.\u00a0Harrison Ford will be presented<\/a>\u00a0with the guild\u2019s life achievement award.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"By JAKE COYLE, Associated Press \u201cOne Battle After Another\u201d\u00a0dominated nominations to the\u00a0Actor Awards\u00a0on Wednesday, with Paul Thomas Anderson\u2019s…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":124135,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[33713,48,52,51,47,50,49,48049,64752,33715],"class_list":["post-124134","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-los-angeles","tag-actor-awards","tag-la","tag-la-headlines","tag-la-news","tag-los-angeles","tag-los-angeles-headlines","tag-los-angeles-news","tag-oscars","tag-oscars-favorites","tag-sag-awards"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/124134","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=124134"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/124134\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/124135"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=124134"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=124134"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=124134"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
