Fox Searchlight’s “12 Years a Slave” regains ground in the awards race with its four nominations for SAG Awards, while “August: Osage County,” “Dallas Buyers Club” and “Lee Daniels’ The Butler” boosted their Oscar stock with three noms apiece, including the key ensemble awards.
The five films contending for ensemble this year are “12 Years a Slave,” “American Hustle,” “August: Osage County,” “Dallas Buyers Club” and “Lee Daniels’ The Butler.”
After being considered one of the two front-runners for Oscar, “12 Years” saw a lot of rivals take home top prizes in last week’s critics awards. But arguably the biggest gainer from the announcement: The Weinstein Co. Both “The Butler” and “Osage County” scored key noms, with Forest Whitaker and Oprah Winfrey for the former, Meryl Streep and Julia Roberts for the latter, aside from both films’ ensemble noms. And the other big gainers are Daniel Bruhl for Universal’s “Rush” and James Gandolfini for Searchlight’s “Enough Said” in the supporting category.
This year marks the 20th annual awards, with Rita Moreno receiving the 50th Life Achievement Award.
The awards will be handed out Jan. 18 at the Shrine Auditorium. That’s two days after the Jan. 16 convergence of Oscar noms, BFCA Critics Choice Awards and Sundance opening all on the same day. Meanwhile, Jan. 19 sees the Producers Guild Awards.
