Awards Watch: Screen Actors Guild

With today's nominations for the Screen Actors Guild, this year's award race just keeps getting more and more interesting. Into the Wild, pretty much ignored by the Golden Globes, snagged a field best four nominations (including Outstanding Performance by a Cast), while Atonement (the Globe frontrunner with seven nods), Charlie Wilson's War and Sweeney Todd are nowhere to be found on the SAG ballot.

In addition to Wild, the ensemble category includes American Gangster, Hairspray, No Country for Old Men and, somewhat of a surprise, 3:10 to Yuma. New this year is two awards honoring Outstanding Performances by a Stunt Ensemble for both film and television; now how about a voiceover actor award, SAG? And speaking of television, there was more love for Brothers and Sisters, Desperate Housewives, Grey's Anatomy and Ugly Betty. And as previously announced, veteran character actor Charles Durning will receive the SAG's life achievement award.

Thanks to a waiver by the striking Writers Guild, the awards will be handed out January 27 in a live telecast on TNT and TBS. For a quick look at the movie award nominations, see the comments section below.
