The Screen Actors Guild will announced their 2018 nominations on Wednesday, so it’s time to stick my neck out and try to predict what’s to come. On the film side, I expect major nominations for some of the biggest films of the year, like Black Panther, Crazy Rich Asians and A Star Is Born, while the TV side is always a bit more conservative in their taste, so I’m going with mostly established shows, especially in the ensemble categories.
Here’s my full list of SAG Award nominations predictions, and you can see how right I am tomorrow at 10 a.m. ET when they are announced by Awkwafina and Laverne Cox.
