The 2024 Screen Actors Guild Awards have wrapped, and the full SAG winners list shows momentum for Lily Gladstone in the Best Actress race at the Oscars — as well as for “Oppenheimer” and its very possible march toward Best Picture.

“Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” led the nominations when they were announced January 10 with four each. “Oppenheimer” ended up winning the most of any film, with three prizes: Best Cast (the top prize), Best Actor Cillian Murphy, and Best Supporting Actor Robert Downey Jr. “Barbie” went home empty-handed.

Lily Gladstone won Best Actress for “Killers of the Flower Moon” over Emma Stone for “Poor Things,” who won the prize at the Golden Globes and Critics Choice Awards. Da’Vine Joy Randolph won the SAG Award for Best Supporting Actress for “The Holdovers,” and has pretty much swept that category at every awards show this season.

“Succession” had its last great awards hurrah, following its triumphs at the Emmys, Golden Globes, and Critics Choice Awards last month — it led the SAG TV pack with five nods, while “The Bear,” “Ted Lasso,” and “The Last of Us” were nipping at the Roy family’s heels with four noms each. “Succession” ultimately won only one award for Best Drama Series Ensemble.

“The Bear” was the biggest winner on the TV side with three awards: Best Comedy Series Ensemble, Best Actor in a Comedy for Jeremy Allen White, and Best Actress in a Comedy for Ayo Edebiri. “Beef” won the two limited series acting awards for Ali Wong and Steven Yeun.

In a surprise, Pedro Pascal won Best Actor in a Drama Series for his soulful turn in “The Last of Us,” while Elizabeth Debicki won Best Actress in a Drama Series for playing Princess Diana in “The Crown.” That meant Kieran Culkin and Sarah Snook lost out for their “Succession” performances.

“The Last of Us” and “Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning” won the respective TV and movie awards for Best Stunt Ensemble.

This was the 30th Screen Actors Guild Awards, one of the highlights of awards season each year, now live-streamed by Netflix: The most visible of all the guild awards, you heard many winners and presenters invoke the “craft” of acting in an especially thoughtful way. Also, Fran Drescher gave a fiery victory speech before the crowd assembled at Los Angeles’ Shrine Auditorium, in the wake of SAG-AFTRA successfully achieving what they wanted from a new contract with the AMPTP in November, following a four-month strike that brought Hollywood to a standstill.
