2022 SAG Award Nominations

The nominations for the 2022 Screen Actors Guild Awards were announced Wednesday morning by “Tick, Tick… Boom!” star Vanessa Hudgens and “Dopesick” star Rosario Dawson on the @sagawards Instagram page.

Among the acclaimed films landing SAG nominations this year are “Belfast,” “King Richard,” “The Power of the Dog,” “West Side Story,” “Don’t Look Up,” “Being the Ricardos,” “House of Gucci” and “CODA,” while series such as “The Morning Show,” “Only Murders in the Building,” “Succession” and “Ted Lasso” fared well on the TV side.

The SAG nominations come days after the 2022 Golden Globe Awards, which were reduced to a small-scale, private affair after a Los Angeles Times investigation raised questions about diversity and ethical lapses within the Hollywood Foreign Press Assn.

Chosen by their actor peers, SAG nominees and winners are generally considered better indicators of who might triumph in the acting categories at the Oscars this spring.

The 28th SAG Awards ceremony is scheduled to air Feb. 27 at 5 p.m. Pacific on TNT and TBS. No host has been announced for the show, which will be broadcast from the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica.

And now, here are the nominees for the 28th SAG Awards:

Outstanding performance by a cast in a drama series
“The Handmaid’s Tale”
“The Morning Show”
“Squid Game”
“Succession”
“Yellowstone”

On the heels of the buzzy sophomore season finale of “The Morning Show,” today Apple TV+ announced that the global hit, Emmy, SAG and Critics Choice Award-winning series has been renewed for a third season. Starring and executive produced by Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston, directed by Mimi Leder and produced by the studio Media Res, Hello Sunshine and Echo Films, season three of the broadly acclaimed drama will be showrun and executive produced by Charlotte Stoudt (“Fosse/Verdon,” “Homeland,” “House of Cards”).

“I’m excited to be joining forces with Apple TV+ and ‘The Morning Show,’” said Stoudt. “The cast, led by the phenomenal Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon, are truly to die for. Kerry, Mimi and Michael, and the teams at Media Res, Hello Sunshine and Echo Films, have created an irresistible world that is equally delicious and provocative.”The complete first and second seasons of “The Morning Show” are now streaming globally on Apple TV+.

Picking up after the explosive events of season one, season two found “The Morning Show” team emerging from the wreckage of Alex (Aniston) and Bradley’s (Witherspoon) actions, to a new UBA and a world in flux, where identity is everything and the chasm between who we present as and who we really are comes into play. Along with Aniston and Witherspoon, the star-studded cast includes Billy Crudup, Mark Duplass, Nestor Carbonell, Karen Pittman, Bel Powley, Desean Terry, Janina Gavankar, Tom Irwin and Marcia Gay Harden, as well as new additions for season two Greta Lee, Ruairi O’Connor, Hasan Minhaj, Holland Taylor, Tara Karsian as news producer Gayle Burns, Valeria Golino and Julianna Margulies.


The Morning Show Renewed For Season 3 at Apple TV+ With New Showrunner

The Morning Show, unlike Mitch Kessler, lives on! (Too soon?)

Apple TV+ has renewed the drama starring Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon for Season 3, TVLine has learned.

The renewal comes with a behind-the-scenes switch: Charlotte Stroud (Homeland, Fosse/Verdon) will take over as showrunner/executive producer, replacing Kerry Ehrin in the role. Ehrin, who is developing series with the streaming service under a previously announced overall deal, will continue as a consultant with the show

The drama’s polarizing second season saw the death of Steve Carell’s Mitch Kessler, who in Season 1 had been outed as a habitual sexual abuser and fired from the titular morning show. Mitch spent most of Season 2 in Italy where, after a visit from his former co-anchor Alex (played by Aniston), he died in a car accident that took place around the start of the COVID-19 lockdown. On a related note, Alex contracted COVID during her time in Italy. Meanwhile, fellow Morning Show host Bradley Jackson (played by Witherspoon) started dating a woman (Julianna Margulies’ Laura Peterson), dealt with a visit from her troubled brother and was on the receiving end of a surprising “I love you” from boss Cory Elison (played by Billy Crudup) in the finale. (For more on the hour, read our interview with Witherspoon and Crudup.)

The Season 2 finale began streaming on Nov. 19, 2021.
