One the biggest takeaways from the nominations list was the amount of posthumous recognition Chadwick Boseman received. Earning a historic 4 nominations, Boseman scored 2 nominations for his work in Spike Lee’s Da 5 Bloods and his lead performance in Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom. Boseman also has a place in the two films’ nominations for Best Ensemble.
Netflix leads the SAG nominations with nods going to Ozark and The Crown. Surprisingly, popular newcomer Bridgerton scored two nominations; Best Actor and Best Ensemble. Michaela Coel scored a well-deserved nomination for her undaunted take on trauma and consent in HBO’s I May Destroy You. The Screen Actors Guild eased the pain held by many disappointed with the Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s disregard for some of the best performances of 2020. The ceremony will be televised on April 4th on TNT and TBS.
