SAG Awards 2024 Nominations: Complete List of Nominees
Nominations for the 2024 Screen Actors Guild Awards were announced on Wednesday, January 10.
Issa Rae and Kumail Nanjiani announced the nominees via Instagram Live on the SAG Awards and Netflix accounts after an introduction from SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher.
The SAG Awards will take place on Saturday, February 24. Leading up to the 2024 nominations, Barbie and Oppenheimer were highly favored to garner multiple nods. The films came out on the same day in July 2023, causing the pop culture phenomenon known as Barbenheimer. Margot Robbie and Cillian Murphy, who played the leads in their respective movies, joined forces in December 2023 to discuss their popularity.
“I think it happened because both movies were good,” Murphy, 47, told Robbie, 33, during Variety’s “Actors on Actors” series. “In fact, that summer, there was a huge diversity of stuff in the cinema, and I think it just connected in a way that you or I or the studios or anybody could never have predicted.”

“You can’t force that or orchestrate that,” Robbie added, to which Murphy replied: “No, and it may never happen again.”
While detailing how they prepared for their respective roles, Murphy joked that he “walk[ed] around my basement talking to myself.”
On a more serious note, Murphy mimicked some of the titular character’s exact movements. “Physically, there was loads of pictures of him, and he always stood with his hand on his hip,” he explained. “He was such a slight man, but he always stood with this very kind of jaunty angle. So I nicked that pretty early as a physical thing.”
Robbie, meanwhile, confessed that it was “so weird prepping Barbie as a character” because all of her “usual tools didn’t apply.”

She continued: “I work with an acting coach, and I work with a dialect coach, and I work with a movement coach, and I read everything, and I watch all the things. I rely on animal work a lot. I was maybe 45 minutes into pretending to be a flamingo or whatever, and I was suddenly like, ‘It’s not working.’”
Robbie ultimately turned to director Greta Gerwig with her concerns.
“I went to Greta, like, ‘Help me. I don’t know where to start with this character.’ And she’s like, ‘OK, what are you scared of?’ And I was like, ‘I don’t want her to seem dumb and ditzy, but she’s also not meant to know anything. She’s meant to be completely na?ve and ignorant,’” she recalled. “And Greta found this episode on ‘This American Life,’ where it was a woman who can’t introspect, who doesn’t have the voice in her head that’s constantly narrating life the way we all do. This woman’s got a Ph.D. and is extremely smart, but just doesn’t have that internal monologue.”
