SAG Awards 2024
‘Oppenheimer’ Dominates as ‘Succession’ and ‘The Bear’ Win Top TV Prizes
The 2024 Screen Actors Guild Awards, held on February 24 at the Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall in Los Angeles, will be live streamed on Netflix for the first time. The ceremony, which traditionally airs on cable television, was held at a tumultuous time in Hollywood, with the streaming revolution largely responsible for a period of intense labor strife and economic disruption. The drama about J. Robert Oppenheimer and the development of the atomic bomb was an unexpected box office hit last summer and is considered a front-runner for next month’s Academy Awards.

The cast of HBO’s “Succession” was named best ensemble in a drama series for successfully pulling off their final season of familial power-grabbing and back-stabbing. FX’s “The Bear,” a pressure-cooker look at restaurant life, earned a best comedy series ensemble prize. Many of the winners spoke frankly about the struggles and sacrifices that characterize a life in the arts. Elizabeth Debicki captured leading actress in a drama series for her chameleonic work as Princess Diana, while Pedro Pascal was a surprise winner for his performance as the survivor of a zombie apocalypse in “The Last of Us.”
Jeremy Allen White, who plays the brilliant and troubled chef at the center of “The Bear,” was named best actor in a comedy series for a second consecutive year. White’s co-star Ayo Edebiri won best leading actress in a comedy for her role as a sous-chef with larger culinary aspirations. Steven Yeun and Ali Wong, who co-starred in “Beef,” won the top acting awards for a TV movie or limited series. Lily Gladstone was named best actress for her performance as Mollie Kyle, an Osage woman who is betrayed by her husband and targeted for her fortune as part of an elaborate conspiracy. Da’Vine Joy Randolph added the SAG Award for best supporting actress for playing a grieving cafeteria manager in “The Holdovers.”
The growing importance of streaming services that angered performers and screenwriters hasn’t always been a boon for studios. Many made expensive bets that they could better compete with Netflix by launching their own in-house challengers like Disney+, Paramount+, and Max, only to find that the costs were too great and the profits too scarce. Most of these major conglomerates have seen their stock prices swoon as Wall Street has more closely scrutinized their business models. See the full list of winners below.
