"Inglourious Basterds," "Precious" and "Up in the Air" led the
list, with three nominations each, as the Screen Actors Guild
unveiled noms for its 16th annual Screen Actors Guild Awards on
Thursday morning.
"Basterds" and "Precious" were both nominated for outstanding performance by a motion picture cast -- SAG's equivalent of a best picture award -- along with "An Education," "The Hurt Locker" and the musical "Nine." On the TV side, SAG also spread the love around, doling out three noms each to "30 Rock," "The Closer" and "Dexter." "The Hurt Locker's" Jeremy Renner, who was overlooked when the Golden Globe Awards nominations were announced on Tuesday, made the list of motion picture lead actor nominees along with Jeff Bridges ("Crazy Heart"), George Clooney ("Up in the Air"), Colin Firth ("A Single Man") and Morgan Freeman ("Invictus"). For lead motion picture actress, the nominees are Sandra Bullock ("The Blind Side"), Helen Mirren ("The Last Station"), Carey Mulligan ("An Education), Gabourey Sidibe ("Precious") and Meryl Streep ("Julie & Julia."). For supporting male film actor, SAG rounded up Matt Damon ("Invictus"), Woody Harrelson ("The Messenger"), Christopher Plummer ("The Last Station"), Stanley Tucci ("The Lovely Bones") and Christoph Waltz ("Basterds"). The circle of supporting female film actors includes Penelope Cruz ("Nine"), Vera Farmiga ("Up in the Air"), Anna Kendrick ("Up in the Air"), Diane Kruger ("Basterds") and Mo'Nique ("Precious.")
