The Screen Actors Guild Awards nominations canceled an in-person announcement planned for Wednesday morning due to devastating wildfires and winds in the Los Angeles area, instead opting to release them on their website.
When the organization announced their nominations, it was the Broadway musical adaptation “Wicked” that stood at the top of the list among motion pictures, with four nominations, including a surprise nod for Jonathan Bailey as Prince Fiyero alongside expected nominations for Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande and outstanding performance by a cast.
Additional movies that received multiple nominations were “Anora,” “Emilia Pérez” and “A Complete Unknown,” all of which received three nominations total and were represented in the award for best cast.

The SAG Awards are a reliable Oscar bellwether for the acting and best picture categories. Over the weekend, “The Brutalist” and “Emilia Pérez” cleared space around themselves as serious contenders with their multiple wins at the Golden Globes. “Wicked” settled for an Golden Globe for box office achievement.
Among movies, Demi Moore and Fernanda Torres won best actress awards for “The Substance” and “I’m Still Here,” respectively, while the best actor awards were won by Adrian Brody for “The Brutalist” and Sebastian Stan for “A Different Man.” (The Globes separate the acting categories between dramatic films and musicals and comedies.)
Of that group, only Moore and Brody repeated with nominations from the Screen Actors Guild. Stan’s co-star in “The Apprentice,” Jeremy Strong, was nominated for best supporting actor in a motion picture.
Homes and structures are burning in a pair of wind-swept fire in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood of Los Angeles and Altadena, a neighborhood near Pasadena, California.
Kristen Bell will host the 31st annual awards ceremony, which will stream live on Netflix on Feb. 23 at 8 p.m. Eastern from the Shrine Auditorium & Expo Hall in Los Angeles. Idris Elba hosted last year’s ceremony.
The fires have led to the cancellation of several entertainment events, including Wednesday’s premiere of the Robbie Williams biopic “Better Man,” a premiere of Jennifer Lopez’s “Unstoppable” movie and the premiere of Universal Pictures’ upcoming horror film “Wolf Man.”
