A day after the Golden Globes woke up and chose chaos with their nominations (we dont want to live in a world where Emily in Paris is deemed more awards-worthy than I May Destroy You, OK?), its now the Screen Actors Guild Awards turn.

Nominations for the 27th annual ceremony honoring the best performances in film and TV were unveiled Thursday morning by actors Lily Collins and Daveed Diggs via a virtual livestream on the SAG Awards official Instagram account.

The Screen Actors Guild Awards often serve as a corrective to the many Globes snubs , and this year was no different. Aside from Aaron Sorkins The Trial of the Chicago 7, an entirely new slate of films, including Ma Raineys Black Bottom, Da 5 Bloods, Minari and One Night in Miami, received top honors in the Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble category. And, thankfully, the awards show doesnt silo non-English-language movies, paving the way for Minari (starring Steven Yeun) to emerge as a major challenger this awards season.

The SAG Awards are perhaps the most accurate portent for the ceremonies still to come, as a significant portion of SAG-AFTRAs membership overlaps with the Academy Awards voting body. As history has shown us, the SAG Awards can either make or break Oscar dreams, with last years ceremony cementing Bong Joon-hos Parasite as a serious Best Picture season contender after the film picked up the top prize.

As for television, Michaela Coel received a Best Actress in a Television Movie or Limited Series nod after her egregious Globes snub, but shell face tough competition from Cate Blanchett, Nicole Kidman, Anya Taylor-Joy and Kerry Washington. Newcomers such as The Flight Attendant, The Great, Ted Lasso and Bridgerton, which the Globes completely overlooked, also broke through. But stalwarts like Netflix s royal drama The Crown and Schitts Creek, poised to take another victory lap after its Emmys sweep, dominated the drama and comedy acting categories, respectively.

In the ever-changing COVID-era awards show scramble, the SAG Awards were perhaps dealt the toughest hand. The ceremony was originally set to air Jan. 24 but got pushed back to March 14 due to pandemic-related setbacks. But after the Grammys telecast was rescheduled to the same date, the SAGs were left with the only option of delaying the ceremony until the spring to avoid conflicting with any other major awards show.

The 27th annual SAG Awards will now air on TNT and TBS on Sunday, April 4, at 9 p.m. EST.
