SAG Awards: ‘Oppenheimer’ Wins Top Film Prize; Cillian Murphy & Lily Gladstone Take Lead Acting Nods – Full Winners List
Oppenheimer won the marquee Cast in a Motion Picture prize as the 30th annual SAG Awards were presented Saturday, and its star Cillian Murphy might have wrestled Oscar front-runner status away from Paul Giamatti by taking the trophy for Male Actor in a Leading Role.
Lily Gladstone was cemented as the favorite for the Best Actress Oscar, winning Female Actor in a Leading Role for Killers of the Flower Moon at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles in a ceremony streaming live on Netflix for the first time.

Robert Downey Jr won the Male Actor in a Supporting Role for Oppenheimer in a mini-upset. But the evening’s first film award wasn’t much of a surprise as Da’vine Joy Randolph continued her awards-season dominance with a Supporting win for The Holdovers.
The top TV prize of Ensemble in a Drama Series went to HBO’s now-wrapped Succession, surprising few. But none of its actors took individual awards.
Elizabeth Debicki surprised with a win for playing Princess Diana in The Crown, beating Succession awards kingpin Sarah Snook and others. Earlier, Pedro Pascal pulled off something of an upset by taking Male Actor in a Drama Series for HBO’s The Last of Us over Kieran Culkin and other Succession stars.

Vying for the marquee Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture prize tonight were American Fiction, Barbie, The Color Purple, Killers of the Flower Moon and Oppenheimer. The category is SAG’s version of Best Picture and, as often as not, has produced some interesting upsets that sent movies such as Parasite, CODA and others on to Best Picture Oscar glory. All of SAG’s Ensemble nominees except Color Purple also are up for the top Academy Award.
Spanning 15 categories in motion pictures and television, including stunt actors, the SAG Awards had no host but plenty of A-list talent nominated and presenting. The latter lineup included Margot Robbie, Idris Elba, Jessica Chastain, Jennifer Aniston and a Devil Wears Prada reunion of Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt.
And there was a special career honoree tonight: EGOT winner Barbra Streisand received SAG’s 2024 Lifetime Achievement Award.
“Such a wonderful award to get because you know you’re gonna get it. … You all know what I mean,” she said in accepting. Streisand went on to recall her earliest roles and the influence of “her first crush” Marlon Brando and others from “that make-believe world. I didn’t like reality — I wanted to be in movies. … Somehow, some way, it all came true.”
She added: “I want to thank SAG-AFTRA and to say to my fellow actors and directors. I love working with you.
