Christopher Nolan’s historical epic ‘Oppenheimer’ picks up three major awards, while ‘The Bear’ and ‘Succession’ share big TV wins.

After a challenging year of strikes, the Screen Actors Guild gathered in Hollywood on Saturday, 24th February, to celebrate the outstanding performances from the last 12 months. For the first time ever this year, the SAG Awards were streamed live via Netflix worldwide, giving the Guild and their awards a brand new platform and a chance for everyone to witness the excitement and fashions of the night. 

One of the many elements of the SAG awards that make it stand out in the awards calendar is its entire dedication to the craft of performance. But, as well as the exciting awards and the recognition of performances from the past year, the SAG awards bring groups of actors back together in reunions to present the awards. 

This year saw a number of iconic reunions, including Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt and Anne Hathaway from The Devil Wears Prada, Sean Astin and Elijah Wood from The Lord of the Rings and the whole cast of Breaking Bad

This year’s SAG Lifetime Achievement award went to the one and only Barbra Streisand, who was presented her award by colleagues and close friends Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Anniston. At the helm of the night was Spotlight member Idris Elba, who opened and closed the show in an exceedingly cool manner – while keeping the show moving at an entertaining pace. It was a fun, exciting ceremony with the winners thanking their peers and the support of their fellow SAG members over the past year. Leading the winners with three wins were The Bear for television and Oppenheimer for film, both winning in their respective fields for Best Ensemble Cast.
