Gary Oldman, Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role Nominee
“No actor could ever deny the special satisfaction that comes from being recognized by your fellow artists…we all share the same challenges, insecurities, and uncertainties, chief among them, the question “am I any good?”…this nomination, and in the wonderful company of the other nominees, is so very satisfying…”
Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture – Zoe Kazan, The Big Sick
“Thank you to SAG for honoring THE BIG SICK ensemble with a nomination. It means so much to us, especially from our acting peers. I am deeply proud to be a part of this film and to have brought Kumail & Emily’s story into the world, especially at this time. We are particularly moved to have been recognized as an ensemble, as this was such an extraordinary collaborative experience. I’m excited to be reunited once more with my movie family, and to share this with Kumail, Holly, Ray, Zenobia, Anupam, and Adeel–and everyone else who helped bring THE BIG SICK to life.”

To share it with this wonderful ensemble whom I have had the pleasure to work with over the years and others I got to collaborate with for the first time is truly special. I want to thank Martin McDonagh, our director and writer, for crafting these characters, as well as Woody, Fran and the rest of the cast who brought the town of Ebbing to life on screen. I am thrilled.”
