Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Brad Pitt among winners at SAG awards

Korean drama Parasite is winner of best film cast on a night when Jennifer Aniston also took home a statuette.

Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Brad Pitt were the two headline winners at the Screen Actors Guild awards on Sunday, taking home awards for Fleabag and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood respectively.


The creator and star of Fleabag, who was named most outstanding female actor in a TV comedy, has won yet another prize for her work on the acclaimed comedy’s second season, following wins at the Golden Globes, Critics’ Choice awards and Emmys. However, Fleabag missed out on best comedy series to its Amazon stablemate The Marvellous Mrs Maisel.

“At some point, it will all hit me and I will have a good old cry about it,” Waller-Bridge said. “Tonight as a Fleabag gang we will soak this up ... in a room I never imagined I would be in.”

“This whole thing really has been a dream and if I wake up tomorrow and discover it has been just that then thank you, it has been the most beautiful dream.”

Brad Pitt continued his awards season hot streak with best supporting film actor for his portrayal of an ageing stuntman in Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon A Time ... In Hollywood. He joked it was time to update his online dating profile: “I’ve got to add this to my Tinder profile.

“Let’s be honest, it was a difficult part. A guy who gets high, takes his shirt off and doesn’t get on with his wife. It was a big stretch.”

The audience laughed and clapped, including Jennifer Aniston, his former wife. Aniston won the prize for female actor in a drama TV series for The Morning Show, her first SAG since she starred in Friends.

“What? Oh my gosh, this is so unbelievable, what a room,” she said, after beating British trio Helena Bonham Carter, Olivia Colman and Jodie Comer. Aniston also paid tribute to her co-star Reese Witherspoon, saying: “It took 20 years but we did it, finally.”

In the other film categories, Joaquin Phoenix boosted his Oscars credentials with a best actor win for his portrayal of a troubled loner in Joker, and Renee Zellweger did likewise by winning best actress for Judy. Outstanding cast in a motion picture went to the South Korean dark comedy Parasite, which is a contender for best picture at the Academy awards; it was a surprise winner, beating the well-fancied heavyweights including Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, The Irishman and Bombshell.

The SAGs, which celebrates both TV and film, is voted for by actors and is one of the final major ceremonies before the Academy awards.

Peter Dinklage won outstanding performance by a male actor in a drama series for his Game of Thrones swan song. Dinklage played Tyrion Lannister in HBO’s sprawling fantasy epic, which ended last year after eight award-winning seasons.

The Crown won outstanding performance by an ensemble in a drama series, beating Game Of Thrones, Big Little Lies, The Handmaid’s Tale and Stranger Things.

The Irishman’s Robert De Niro, 76, was recognised with the lifetime achievement award, presented by Leonardo DiCaprio.

The two-time Oscar winner said: “As actors, we don’t take victory laps, we are too worried about what our next job will be, so it makes me very happy to know my next job is working with [DiCaprio] and Marty [Scorsese]. At least I know I’ve got another year of health insurance.”

The high-profile critic of Donald Trump, also referred to “such a dire” political situation that was “so deeply concerning to me and others that I have to say something”.

“There’s right and there’s wrong. And there’s common sense and there’s abuse of power. As a citizen, I have as much right as anybody an actor, an athlete, anybody else to voice my opinion.”

“And if I have a bigger voice because of my situation, I’m going to use it whenever I see a blatant abuse of power.”
