SAG Actor Awards Nominations 2026 Revealed

SAG-AFTRA announces the nominations for the 32nd Annual Actor Awards, and two juggernauts dominate the field out of the gate. One Battle After Another boasts a record seven nods, while Sinners follows with five, the front-runner pair of awards season remaining locked in its duel. The SAG Awards — still referred to by the old name, even by its own logo — remains an imposing barometer in the sprint for Oscars.

Hot on the heels of a Critics’ Choice Best Picture win, One Battle After Another picked up noms for Leonardo DiCaprio, Chase Infiniti, Benicio Del Toro, Sean Penn and Teyana Taylor as well as ensemble and stunt ensemble. Sinners equaled that width with acting attention for Michael B. Jordan, Miles Caton and Wunmi Mosaku, as well as nods for ensemble and stunt work. On the TV side, The Studio leads the field with five nominations, while The White Lotus and Adolescence each received four.

SAG-AFTRA and its voting membership ballast has about 160,000 members with scale and industry reach. The actors branch, historically the Academy’s largest faction, makes today an especially impactful snapshot of this race; SAG winners can also serve as much-needed wind under the potential best picture nominees that could use a push (by which we mean wins for ensemble cast).

Key Takeaways and Notable Trends From the 2026 Nominee Slate

The Studio’s five TV nods highlight its across-the-board strength: ensemble plus standout comedy acting entries by Kathryn Hahn, Catherine O’Hara, Ike Barinholtz and Seth Rogen. The White Lotus combines ensemble heat with individual acknowledgment for Walton Goggins, Parker Posey and Aimee Lou Wood; Adolescence breaks out in limited series across four acting nominations in a rare showing from a freshman title.

On the film front, the ensemble and stunt mentions for Bank Thornfield’s “One Battle After Another” and Earp’s “Sinners” promise large casts and technical heft — two things that usually translate to late-season victories. See if Frankenstein and Hamnet can parlay their ensemble and supporting nominations into wider momentum with guild voters.
