The 2018 SAG Award nominees include Holly Hunter (The Big Sick) and Woody Harrelson (Three Billboards) who were left out at this year's Golden Globes. Kristen Bell (Veronica Mars) will serve as the award show's first-ever host. 

What is SAG-AFTRA?

The Screen Actors Guild (SAG), along with the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (AFTRA), is the labor union that represents approximately 160,000 actors, announcers, broadcast journalists, dancers, DJs, news writers, news editors, program hosts, puppeteers, recording artists, singers, stunt performers, voiceover artists and other media professionals, according to SAG-AFTRA.

The annual SAG Awards recognize actors exclusively, including stunt performers. Only members of SAG vote on the nominees, according to Entertainment Weekly. 

The 2018 SAG Award Nominees

James Franco earns another nomination for his performance in The Disaster Artist as the strange and lovable Tommy Wiseau, an aspiring actor whose self-produced film The Room eventually earns the title as one of the worst movies ever made. Gary Oldman (Darkest Hour), Timothée Chalamet (Call Me By Your Name), and Denzel Washington (Roman J. Israel, Esq.) join Franco and Kaluuya in the category.

Frances McDormand (Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri) and Saoirse Ronan (Lady Bird) both took home the Golden Globe this year for their powerhouse performances. Judy Dench (Victoria & Abdul), Sally Hawkins (Shape of Water) and Margot Robbie (I, Tonya) join McDormand and Ronan in the category. Variety predicts McDormand will win.

The 2018 SAG Awards will air on Sunday, January 21 on TNT and TBS at 8 p.m. ET., according to Variety.
