Biggest Snubs And Surprises

Since the Golden Globes organization nominates 12 female actors and 12 male actors in the lead categories — Best Motion Picture — Drama and Best Motion Picture — Musical or Comedy — there were some notable absences among the nominees for the 2025 SAG Awards.

Chief among them were Golden Globes nominees Angelina Jolie and Hugh Grant, who were snubbed in the Outstanding Female Actor and Outstanding Male Actor categories.

Sebastian Stan, who won the Best Male Actor in a Musical or Comedy Golden Globe for a A Different Man, also failed to secure a SAG nomination.

Pamela Anderson, meanwhile, scored a surprise nomination for Best Female Actor in The Last Showgirl.

In the Outstanding Male Actor in a Supporting Role category, Golden Globe nominees Denzel Washington (Gladiator II) and Guy Pearce (The Brutalist) also missed the cut. Instead, Jonathan Bailey (Wicked) and Jeremy Strong (The Apprentice) scored surprise nominations in the category.

In the Outstanding Female Actor in a Supporting Role category, Golden Globe nominees Selena Gomez (Emilia Pérez), Isabella Rossellini (Conclave) and Margaret Qualley (The Substance) missed out on SAG nominations.

Instead, Monica Barbaro (A Complete Unknown), Jamie Lee Curtis (The Last Showgirl) and Danielle Deadwyler (The Piano Lesson) all scored surprise nods.
