The 26th annual Screen Actors Guild Awards took over Hollywood last night, with Jennifer Aniston, Lupita Nyong'o, Charlize Theron, Scarlett Johansson, Reese Witherspoon, Jennifer Lopez and many of their A-list peers strutting down the red carpet.
The awards ceremony saw Jennifer Lopez wear her favourite, Lebanese designer Georges Hobeika, while Jennifer Aniston opted for vintage once more (an eco-conscious choice), this time wearing a design by John Galliano for Dior.
Cynthia Erivo delivered some fun volume with her Schiaparelli gown in pink and red (an underrated combo), Scarlett Johansson looked amazing in Armani Privé (the red lip helped) and Danai Gurira won sleekest look of the night in red hot Mugler.
While these women slayed the red carpet, the top winner on stage was certainly Bong Joon Ho's Parasite. The Korean class satire became the first foreign language film to take top honors from the Screen Actors Guild on Sunday, setting itself up as a legitimate best picture contender to the front-runner 1917 at next month's Academy Awards.
Before the win for Parasite, the SAG Awards were most notable as a reunion for Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston. They each took home awards and celebrated the other's win.
Pitt is headed toward his first acting Academy Award for his supporting performance in Once Upon a Time ... in Hollywood, and he added to his front-runner status with a win from the actors' guild. Along the way, his speeches have been full of one-liners and he didn't disappoint Sunday. Pitt, who said he was nursing a flu, looked down at his award and said, "I've got to add this to my Tinder profile."
Aniston later won an award of her own for best female actor in a drama series for the Apple TV Plus show The Morning Show. "What!" she said upon reaching the stage. Aniston finished her speech with a shout-out to her Murder Mystery co-star Adam Sandler, whose performance in Uncut Gems has gone mostly unrewarded this season despite considerable acclaim.
“Your performance is extraordinary and your magic is real. I love you, buddy,” said Aniston.
