Disney Snags Several SAG Nominations In Key Categories

The year has only just begun, but Awards Season has already begun picking up momentum. Last night, Disney won big in several major categories including Best Actress in a Supporting Role and Best Television Series – Comedy. Today, the study scored another win in the form of several SAG nominations.

For those unfamiliar with the SAG awards, they are presented by the Screen Actors Guild (known commonly as SAG) and they are also the only awards show where all the awards are geared towards acting. Because all of the categories concern performances, there are obviously less nominations all around. Still, Disney accrued more nominations than some pundits had expected.

Fresh off her win at the Globes on Tuesday, Angela Bassett received a SAG nomination for her supporting role in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Sadly, that is the only film award the company got, but it dominated in all of the television categories.

In the category for Outstanding performance by an ensemble in a comedy series, Abbott Elementary (ABC), The Bear (FX), AND Only Murders in the Building (HULU) all got nominated.

Abbott Elementary‘s creator and star Quinta Brunson also received a nomination for Outstanding performance by a female actor in a comedy series, while Jeremy Allen White, Steve Martin and Martin Short also received nominations in the Outstanding performance by a male actor in a comedy series category for their respective performances in The Bear and Only Murders in the Building.

Academy Award winner and MCU alum Jeff Bridges also scored an acting nom in the category for Outstanding performance by a male actor in a drama series for his performance in FX’s The Old Man.

Amanda Seyfried also received a nomination for her work in Hulu’s The Dropout in the category for Outstanding performance by a female actor in a miniseries or television movie.

Steve Carell received some love as well in the category Outstanding performance by a male actor in a miniseries or television movie for his performance in Hulu’s limited series The Patient.

Andor, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, and Avatar: The Way of Water also received SAG nominations for their incredible stuntwork.
