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


Last year’s nominees: Darren Criss (The Assassination of Gianni Versace), Antonio Banderas (Genius: Picasso), Hugh Grant (A Very English Scandal), Anthony Hopkins (King Lear), Bill Pullman (The Sinner)

I don’t have much to offer here aside from having sampled the first episodes of most of these projects, and my predictions won’t differ all that much from my notions for the Golden Globes. Jared Harris (Chernobyl), Sam Rockwell (Fosse/Verdon), and, despite his Golden Globe snub, Jharrel Jerome (When They See Us), seem likeliest, and I feel like Russell Crowe (The Loudest Voice) should be able to get in here too. It’s possible that three-time Emmy winner Aaron Paul (El Camino) will find himself nominated for an individual SAG nomination for the first time. Also vying for nominations are Christopher Abbott (Catch-22), Stellan Skarsgard (Chernobyl), Mahershala Ali (True Detective), Sacha Baron Cohen (The Spy), Benedict Cumberbatch (Brexit), and plenty more, I’m sure.

Current predictions:
Mahershala Ali (True Detective)
Russell Crowe (The Loudest Voice)
Jared Harris (Chernobyl)
Jharrel Jerome (When They See Us)
Sam Rockwell (Fosse/Verdon)
