SAG Winners Include Viola Davis, Youn Yuh-jung, and ‘The Trial of the Chicago 7’

Moments ago, the 27th annual Screen Actors Guild Awards wrapped up, with the 2021 ceremony looking a lot different. Clocking in at one hour and being a pre-recorded affair, SAG opted for brevity. it ran smoothly, though one could argue that the winners deserved more room to breathe. As for the winners, we had the film side solidify two future Oscar winners in Chadwick Boseman and Daniel Kaluuya. Boseman took Best Actor for Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, while Kaluuya won Best Supporting Actor for Judas and the Black Messiah. If the Actor categories were cut and dry situations, the Actress ones decidedly were not. First, Youn Yuh-jung won Best Supporting Actress for her work in Minari, likely vaulting her to the front of the Supporting Actress race. Then, Viola Davis took Best Actress for Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom. We’re quite possibly headed for an Academy Award ceremony where all five nominees are going in one with one major award under the belts, making it a photo finish. Finally, The Trial of the Chicago 7 held of Minari to take the Best Ensemble prize, even though it’s likely too little, too late for that Oscar player. Stay tuned for lots more on what SAG did and din’t do this evening…
