It’s a big week on deck for awards nominations with the Golden Globe announcements coming Wednesday and the SAG nods following on Thursday!

Now onto SAG! As a friendly reminder, the Screen Actors Guild do not have a Best Picture category in the traditional sense as they instead honor the best ensemble. In other words, pictures with smaller casts have a tougher time making the final cut.
Here’s how I have it shaking out later this week!
