2017 SAG Awards Winners: ‘Hidden Figures’ Takes The Top Prize, ‘Fences’ Makes A Big Showing Too

By Ethan Anderton/Jan. 30, 2017 6:30 am EST

Following the unveiling of the winners of the 2017 Producers Guild of America Awards this past Saturday, last night saw the members of the Screen Actors Guild get together to hand out their awards honoring achievements in acting from the previous year.

Even though La La Land has been dominating awards season, the movie wasn’t up for the top acting ensemble prize at the SAG Awards. Instead, that honor went to Hidden Figures. But that doesn’t mean the musical went home empty handed. Find out all of the 2017 SAG Awards winners below. Hidden Figures is a fine choice for the acting ensemble award that is the SAG equivalent of Best Picture, but does that mean the movie could give La La Land a run for its money at the Oscars? It doesn’t seem likely that Hidden Figures will upset Damien Chazelle’s musical, but it’s certainly not impossible. If any movie has a chance of taking Best Picture instead of La La Land, it’s probably Moonlight. But we’ll see how that shakes out when the Academy Awards air on February 26.

In the meantime, here are all the 2017 SAG Awards winners:

I’m not sure I agree with Stranger Things beating out Westworld for the ensemble award for a drama series, but I suppose the younger parts of the cast helped make the nominees a bit more appealing to the SAG voting body. Don’t get me wrong, the Stranger Things cast is great, but the work done in Westworld could have easily won as well. The big question is whether Denzel Washington will be able to keep this momentum in order to snag Best Actor from the Academy Awards for a second time. He’d have to beat Ryan Gosling, which may be one of the easier awards to take away from La La Land. It’s not that Ryan Gosling isn’t great in La La Land, because he is, but Denzel Washington’s performance is powerful as hell.

We’ll see what happens when the Oscars are handed out on February 26. Until then, we leave you with this somber look back at all the great actors we lost over the past year:
