Awards season is in full swing as the best and brightest in Hollywood honor their fellow actors in the 2016 Screen Actors Guild Awards. The awards, which made its debut in 1995, is the only televised show to exclusively honor performers, presenting awards for acting in film and television.
Apart from impressing film critics, it looks like Leonardo DiCaprio also impressed his peers as he got a nod for Best Actor for his work in "The Revenant." The actor is up against his "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" co-star Johnny Depp, Bryan Cranston, Michael Fassbender, and awards favorite Eddie Redmayne.
Noticeably absent from the Best Actress list is Jennifer Lawrence, who was nominated in the Golden Globes and Critics' Choice Awards for her work in "Joy." But Cate Blanchett, Brie Larson, Helen Mirren, Saoirse Ronan, and Sarah Silverman each got a nod for the category, with Larson being touted as the one who will most likely take home the award.
At only nine years old, Jacob Tremblay is the youngest nominee in the Best Supporting Actor category and will be up against much older and more experienced actors such as Christian Bale and Idris Elba. Meanwhile, for the Best Supporting Actress category, Kate Winslet will be going up against Rachel McAdams, Rooney Mara, Alicia Vikander, and Helen Mirren.
Among those who will be presenting the awards are SAG-AFTRA president Ken Howard, Anna Faris, Mark Ruffalo, Susan Sarandon, Tina Fey and Kristen Wiig. The ceremony will be simulcast live on Jan. 30 from the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, California. The two-hour ceremony starts at 8 p.m. and will air simultaneously on TNT and TBS.
