Less than an hour to go and this will be my first predictions post on my new blog!! Let’s get straight to it…
OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE BY A MALE ACTOR IN A LEADING ROLE
Steve Carrell – Foxcatcher
Benedict Cumberbatch – The Imitation Game
Jake Gyllenhaal – Nightcrawler
Michael Keaton – Birdman
Eddie Redmayne – The Theory of Everything
Prediction: Michael Keaton
After pulling for Eddie Redmayne all season, I finally have to go with Michael Keaton. I still secretly hope that Redmayne still gets it because SAG sometimes likes the showier roles, but this season keeps going Keaton’s way…. (Unfortunately)
OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE BY A FEMALE ACTOR IN A LEADING ROLE
Jennifer Aniston – Cake
Felicity Jones – The Theory of Everything
Julianne Moore – Still Alice
Rosamund Pike – Gone Girl
Reese Witherspoon – Wild
Prediction: Julianne Moore
Julianne Moore is sweeping the season (finally!) the only thing that could be against her is the amount of SAG voters who actually watched her screener…
OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE BY A MALE ACTOR IN SUPPORTING ROLE
Robert Duvall – The Judge
Ethan Hawke – Boyhood
Edward Norton – Birdman
Mark Ruffalo – Foxcatcher
JK Simmons – Whiplash
Prediction: JK Simmons
No competition here…
OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTRESS IN A SUPPORTING ROLE
Patricia Arquette – Boyhood
Keira Knightly – The Imitation Game
Emma Stone – Birdman
Meryl Streep – Into the Woods
Naomi Watts – St. Vincent
Prediction: Patricia Arquette
Again, another boring race here… She’s sweeping everything.
BEST PERFORMANCE BY A CAST IN A MOTION PICTURE
Birdman
Boyhood
The Grand Budapest Hotel
The Imitation Game
The Theory of Everything
Prediction: Birdman
This is Birdman’s award to lose. With Boyhood riding close on it’s heels. With Birdman (shockingly) winning the Producer’s Guild Award last night, could this be a late insurgence for Birdman?? Or does missing that editing nomination at the Oscars still spell doom???
