Cillian Murphy has been nominated for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in Leading Role for his performance as Oppenheimer at the 2024 SAG Awards.
Following his Golden Globes win, Cillian Murphy has been nominated for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in Leading Role at the SAG Awards. Murphy is believed to be a frontrunner for the Academy Award for Best Actor, along with Paul Giamatti for The Holdovers.
Oppenheimer received four nominations, the other three nominations being Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture, Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Supporting Role for Robert Downey Jr., and Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role for Emily Blunt. If the film wins in all four categories, it would become the second film to do so following Everything Everywhere All At Once’s four wins at the SAG Awards last year.
Element Pictures-produced Poor Things received two nominations: Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role for Emma Stone, and Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Supporting Role for Willem Dafoe.
Last year’s SAG Awards saw Colin Farrell nominated for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role for his performance in The Banshees of Inisherin, as well as nominations for his co-stars Kerry Condon (Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role), Brendan Gleeson, and Barry Keoghan (Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Supporting Role).
The 30th annual SAG Awards will stream live on Netflix on Saturday, February 24th at 8pm E.T. (February 25th, 3am Irish time) from the Shrine Auditorium & Expo Hall in Los Angeles.
