SAG Winner Predictions: Best Male Actor in a Miniseries or Made-for-TV Movie


The competition: John Goodman’s controversial author (You Don’t Know Jack), Al Pacino’s Jack Kavorkian (You Don’t Know Jack), Dennis Quaid’s Bill Clinton (The Special Relationship), Edgar Ramirez’s terrorist (Carlos), and Patrick Stewart’s Macbeth (Macbeth).

For your information: Pacino won this award in 2003 for “Angels in America.” Stewart was nominated in 1999 in this category for “A Christmas Carol” and in 1994 for “Star Trek: The Next Generation.” John Goodman was previously nominated for his work on “Roseanne,” and Quaid was a nominee for the film “Far from Heaven.” This is Ramirez’s first nomination.

Who should win: I haven’t seen a single one of these performances, sadly.

Who will win: It probably makes sense for it to be Pacino, but I’ll go out on a limb and say that Shakespeare wins in a competitive category with Stewart.
