The highly anticipated 2024 SAG Awards took place on Saturday night, showcasing the best of the entertainment industry. The star-studded event celebrated outstanding performances in both film and television, with two standout titles, “Oppenheimer” and ”The Bear,” taking home multiple awards.
Christopher Nolan’s gripping historical drama, “Oppenheimer,” which delves into the creation of the atomic bomb, won the prestigious award for best performance by a cast in a motion picture. The film’s talented stars, Cillian Murphy and Robert Downey Jr., were also recognized for their exceptional performances, winning the best leading actor and best supporting actor awards, respectively.
Lily Gladstone was honored with the best leading actress title for her remarkable work in “Killers of the Flower Moon,” while Da’vine Joy Randolph received the best supporting actress award for her outstanding performance in “The Holdovers.”
The popular TV series “The Bear” also had a triumphant night, securing three awards. The hilarious Hulu show won the best ensemble in a comedy series category, and its leading star, Jeremy Allen White, was recognized as the best male actor in a comedy series. Ayo Edebiri took home the best female actor award in the same category.
Another notable winner was the critically acclaimed series “Succession,” which won the award for best drama ensemble.
However, one of the most memorable moments of the night came from actor Pedro Pascal, who won the best male actor in a drama series award for his role in “The Last of Us.” In a candid and humorous acceptance speech, Pascal admitted to being a little drunk, adding a touch of spontaneity and entertainment to the event.
