Between the night’s signature opening montage of “Actors Stories,” the yearly presentation of the Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award, and awarding of the coveted Actor statuettes in thirteen categories recognizing both individual performances as well as the entire ensemble of one drama series, one comedy series, and one motion picture, the focus is squarely on the actor. (We know, we know, like they don’t get enough attention.) And it’s that for us, by us ethos that makes this the one award show where the sappy old “It’s just an honor to be nominated” saying just might actually be true.
TBS and TNT will simulcast the 27th Annual SAG Awards at Sunday, April 4 at 6 p.m. ET.
