Actor Awards signal an unpredictable Oscars ahead.

The 32nd annual Actor Awards, formerly known as the SAG Awards, have dialled up the suspense ahead of the 2026 Oscars, proving that this year’s race is still anyone’s game. With just over a week to go, the ceremony reshuffled expectations and blurred what once looked like clear frontrunners.

Sinners emerged as the night’s biggest story, winning Best Ensemble while Michael B. Jordan claimed Best Actor, marking a decisive momentum shift in a category where Timothée Chalamet had been widely tipped to win. Jessie Buckley strengthened her awards season run with Leading Actress for Hamnet, while Sean Penn for One Battle After Another and Amy Madigan for Weapons secured the supporting honours, tightening two of the most competitive races of the year.

If the Actor Awards proved anything, it is that no category is locked and the Oscars are shaping up to be a genuine photo finish.
