Our Predictions For The 25th Annual SAG Nominations

By Matt Neglia 

​We have heard from the Golden Globes, the Critics Choice Awards and now tomorrow, we will hear from the Screen Actor's Guild. One of the best predictors for the acting categories at the Oscars, the over 100,000 large membership can bring about an unexpected surprise (last year's Denzel Washington for "Roman J. Israel, Esq.") or solidify a fringe contender (Woody Harrelson last year for "Three Billboards Outside Edding, Missouri"). What surprises will they throw us this year? Who will be left out?
