Hollywood's awards season is shaping up to be a declaration of independence.
The big studios got shut out as "Boyhood," "Birdman," "The Grand Budapest Hotel," "The Imitation Game" and "The Theory of Everything" earned the top movie nominations Wednesday for the 21st annual Screen Actors Guild Awards.
They're competing in the category for best ensemble in a motion picture award -- SAG's equivalent of the best picture of the year. Though some awards have already been handed out by critics groups this season, the SAG nominations kicks off the high-profile series of honors that will culminate with the Academy Awards in February.
The race for Oscar gold may be further clarified Thursday morning with the Golden Globe nominations.
"Birdman" -- its full title is "Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)" -- dominated the nominations Wednesday, with four. Besides best ensemble, the film about a washed-up movie star who seeks redemption earned a nomination for male lead actor for Michael Keaton. Co-stars Edward Norton and Emma Stone received nominations in the supporting categories.
Also receiving nominations for male lead actor were Steve Carell ("Foxcatcher"), Jake Gyllenhaal ("Nightcrawler"), Benedict Cumberbatch ("The Imitation Game") and Eddie Redmayne ("The Theory of Everything"). Vying with Norton for male actor in a supporting role are Robert Duvall ("The Judge"), Ethan Hawke ("Boyhood"), Mark Ruffalo ("Foxcatcher") and J.K. Simmons ("Whiplash").
Joining Julianne Moore ("Still Alice") and Reese Witherspoon ("Wild") in the female lead actor race are Jennifer Aniston ("Cake"), Felicity Jones ("The Theory of Everything") and Rosamund Pike ("Gone Girl"). Besides Stone, supporting female actor nominations went to Patricia Arquette ("Boyhood"), Keira Knightley ("The Imitation Game"), Meryl Streep ("Into The Woods") and Naomi Watts ("St. Vincent.")
On the TV side, drama ensemble nominations went to "Boardwalk Empire," "Downton Abbey," "Game of Thrones," "Homeland" and "House of Cards." "The Big Bang Theory," "Brooklyn Nine-Nine," "Veep," "Modern Family" and "Orange Is the New Black" received ensemble nods for comedy series.
The SAG Awards have become one of the leading bellwethers for the Academy Awards. Earlier this year, the winners of SAG's four top acting awards -- Matthew McConaughey ("Dallas Buyers Club"), Cate Blanchett ("Blue Jasmine"), Jared Leto ("Dallas Buyers Club") and Lupita Nyong'o ("12 Years a Slave") -- all went on to receive the Academy Award for their performances.
The SAG Awards will air live Jan. 25 at 5 p.m. PST on TBS and TNT from the Shrine Exposition Hall in Los Angeles. Debbie Reynolds will be honored during the ceremony with a life achievement award.
