'Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri' Sweeps The 2018 SAG Awards
Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri has jumped to the front of the Oscar race again, scooping up three wins at the 2018 Screen Actors Guild Awards on Sunday night.
Check out the complete list of winners below.
Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri won three out of the six awards in the motion picture categories at the 2018 SAG Awards, which aired on TNT and TBS on Sunday night. Martin McDonagh's black comedy about female vengeance won the awards for best ensemble, while star Frances McDormand received another award for best actress after her wins at the Golden Globes and the Critics Choice Awards. Sam Rockwell won again for best supporting actor as well, his fifth award for his role as the racist cop who seeks redemption.
On the TV side, Big Little Lies won big, while Veep and This Is Us gained some historic wins for stars Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Sterling K. Brown.
The the actors branch comprises nearly 17% of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' membership, making the results of the SAG Awards a pretty clear indicator of the direction Oscar nominations will go in when they are revealed on Tuesday. However, the winner of the SAG Awards' biggest category, best ensemble, isn't always a guaranteed best picture shoo-in — only 11 winners in the past 22 years have gone on to win the coveted Academy Award. So this makes the race a toss-up between The Shape of Water and Three Billboards, right? Maybe. Despite The Shape of Water's big win at the PGA Awards Sunday, the fact that it was omitted for a SAG ensemble nomination could spell trouble for the movie — any film that hasn't been nominated for this category in the past two decades has almost never gone on to win a best picture Oscar.
