NEW YORK<\/strong> (AP)\u2014The 30th Screen Actors Guild Awards on Wednesday heaped nominations on \u201cOppenheimer,\u201d \u201cBarbie\u201d and \u201cAmerican Fiction,\u201d while snubbing Leonardo DiCaprio for best male actor.<\/p>\n

As they were at the Golden Globes, Greta Gerwig\u2019s \u201cBarbie\u201d and Christopher Nolan\u2019s \u201cOppenheimer\u201d were again the lead nominees. Each film picked up four nods including best ensemble. Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling were nominated for their performances in \u201cBarbie,\u201d while Cillian Murphy, Robert Downey Jr. and Emily Blunt received nods for \u201cOppenheimer.\u201d<\/p>\n

Barbenheimer continues to rule Hollywood\u2019s awards season, just as it did the summer box office.<\/p>\n

Cord Jefferson\u2019s \u201cAmerican Fiction\u201d got the biggest momentum boost, landing three nods: best ensemble, Jeffrey Wright for best male actor and Sterling K. Brown for supporting male actor.<\/p>\n

Along with those three films, Martin Scorsese\u2019s \u201cKillers of the Flower Moon\u201d and Blitz Bazawule\u2019s \u201cThe Color Purple\u201d were nominated for best ensemble, the guild\u2019s top award.<\/p>\n

Most notably left out of that group was Yorgos Lanthimos\u2019 \u201cPoor Things,\u201d which on Sunday won best comedy\/musical at the Golden Globes. The film\u2019s star, Emma Stone, was nominated for best female actor while Willem Dafoe (but not Mark Ruffalo) was nominated for best supporting male actor.<\/p>\n

But those were far from the only snubs in the nominations announced by Issa Rae, a co-star in both \u201cBarbie\u201d and \u201cAmerican Fiction,\u201d and Kumail Nanjiani on Instagram Live.<\/p>\n

Nominated for best actor were Bradley Cooper (\u201cMaestro\u201d), Colman Domingo (\u201cRustin\u201d), Paul Giamatti (\u201cThe Holdovers\u201d), Murphy and Wright. DiCaprio had long been seen as a presumed nominee for his performance in Martin Scorsese\u2019s \u201cKillers of the Flower Moon.\u201d Lily Gladstone, who is poised to potentially make history at the Oscars, was among the best female actor nominees, while Robert De Niro was nominated for best supporting male actor.<\/p>\n

Todd Hayne\u2019s \u201cMay December\u201d was completely shut out, as was Celine Song\u2019s tender love story, \u201cPast Lives.\u201d Charles Melton, co-star of \u201cMay December,\u201d was expected to be among the supporting male actors. And neither Sandra H\u00fcller (\u201cAnatomy of a Fall\u201d) nor Fantasia Barrino (\u201cThe Color Purple\u201d) scored individual nominations.<\/p>\n

Along with Gladstone and Stone, the nominees for best female actor are Carey Mulligan (\u201cMaestro\u201d) and Annette Bening (\u201cNyad\u201d). Bening\u2019s co-star, Jodie Foster, joined the supporting female actor category which also featured Da\u2019Vine Joy Randolph (\u201cThe Holdovers\u201d), Danielle Brooks (\u201cThe Color Purple\u201d) and Pen\u00e9lope Cruz for \u201cFerrari.\u201d<\/p>\n

The SAG Awards are closely watched as an Oscar bellwether. Their picks don\u2019t always align exactly with those of the film academy, but seldom is a best picture or acting winner not nominated first by SAG. That means any best picture hopes for films like \u201cPoor Things\u201d just took a hit. \u201cPast Lives,\u201d Celine Song\u2019s tender love story, also was set back.<\/p>\n

The last two best-ensemble winners\u2014\u201dEverything Everywhere All at Once\u201d and \u201cCODA\u201d\u2014went on to win best picture at the Oscars.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s SAG Awards follow a grueling 118-day strike by the actors guild SAG-AFTRA that put Hollywood in a months-long battle over its future. Pay in the streaming era and artificial intelligence were top issues.<\/p>\n

In the television categories, the trio that nearly swept the Golden Globes\u2014\u201dSuccession,\u201d \u201cThe Bear\u201d and \u201cBeef\u201d\u2014were again among the lead nominees. \u201cSuccession\u201d led all series with five nods (though Jeremy Strong was passed over), while \u201cThe Last of Us,\u201d \u201cTed Lasso\u201d and \u201cThe Bear\u201d all collected four nominations.<\/p>\n

The SAG Awards will take place Feb. 24 at the Shine Auditorium & Expo Hall in Los Angeles. Netflix will live stream the ceremony for the first time. Last year\u2019s awards were streamed on Netflix\u2019s YouTube account.<\/p>\n

The show will mark one of Netflix\u2019s most notable forays into live programming. The streamer, which has for years been an awards season force, will first to play host, too, in the runup to the Academy Awards in March.<\/p>\n

Barbra Streisand will receive the SAG Life Achievement Award.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
