How Long Is the 2020 SAG Awards Tonight?

SAG Awards

Getty The SAG Awards 2020 will air live this Sunday, January 19 at 8 p.m. EST/7 p.m. CST on both TNT and TBS.

On Sunday, January 19, 2020, some of Hollywood’s biggest stars will come together to celebrate the best of film and television from the past year. The 26th Annual Screen Actor’s Guilds Awards will begin at 8 p.m. ET and run until 10:15 p.m. ET, giving it a runtime of just over two hours. The award show will air at the same time on both TNT and TBS.

The Red-Carpet pre-show will be covered by Entertainment Weekly, PeopleTV, and other sites. You can watch the pre-show starting at 5:30 p.m. ET on the SAG website.

The SAG Awards are voted on by active members of the Screen Actor’s Guild or the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists that are in good standing and reside within the U.S. and Canada. This means over 160,000 members are eligible for voting on the awards, including actors, announcers, broadcast journalists, dancers, DJs, news writers, editors, program hosts, recording artists, singers, and other media professionals.

This year, the SAG chooses to follow in the footsteps of the Golden Globes and Critics’ Choice Awards in offering a plant-based menu for dinner this year. They will serve a variety of salads, rice, and other dishes.


Who is Hosting This Year?

Since the SAG Awards began in 1995, it was traditional for the awards to not have a host. In the 2018 ceremony, however, Kristen Bell emceed, and Megan Mullally hosted in 2019. At the time of writing, no host for the 2020 ceremony has been announced, meaning that the award show is probably going back to its no-host roots for this years’ ceremony.

There are ambassadors for this years’ awards, however. Logan Browning and SAG Award nominee Joey King were both named as ambassadors for the ceremony. They will both be participating in various pre-show events and giving fans a look behind the scenes on their social media channels throughout the night.


Who Are The Nominees?

On the film side, Bombshell is this years’ most-nominated film with four nominations. It’s closely followed by The Irishman, Marriage Story, and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, which have both been nominated for three acting awards.

Predictions vary, but it’s likely that Joaquin Phoenix will be taking home the Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role award for his performance in Joker unless Adam Driver’s name is called for his performance in Marriage Story. Both actors have consistently been nominated in this category throughout the award season. It’s also likely that Renee Zellweger will take home the Outstanding Female Actor in a leading role award; she won the award at the Critics’ Choice Awards this year for her work on Judy.
