Gary Oldman’s path to the Oscars continues at the Screen Actors Guild Awards where he is up for leading actor in a film. He enters Sunday’s ceremony, which is a good predictor of the Academy Awards, having won a Golden Globe and a Critics’ Choice Award for his portrayal of Winston Churchill in Darkest Hour. The SAG Awards are decided by the more than 121,000 members of the SAG-AFTRA guild, which includes actors and journalists. The annual ceremony is seen as a good indicator for the Oscars because actors are the largest group in the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences, judges of the Academy Awards. Kristen Bell will host the 24th SAG Awards at the Shrine Auditorium, which starts at 5pm local time, 1am on Monday in the UK.
