Helen Mirren, "Trumbo" lead 22nd SAG movie nominations

SAG-AFTRA
With no film taking a massive lead in nominations for the 22nd Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards, the bio-pic "Trumbo" crept in with a leading three nominations. 

The cast was nominated for outstanding performance by a cast in a motion picture, with Bryan Cranston earning a lead male actor nod as the titular, blacklisted Hollywood writer, and Helen Mirren getting a supporting female actor mention.

In addition to her leading female actor nod for her work in "Woman in Gold," Mirren received three nominations overall, the most of any performer this year.

"Trumbo" competes against "Beasts of no Nation," The Big Short," "Spotlight," and "Straight Out of Compton" for the film cast prize.

While Mirren leads among all in film categories only, Idris Elba picked up three bids as well as a cast member in "Beasts of No Nation", a supporting film bid for the same role, and as a lead in the miniseries/TV movie category for "Luther."
Winners will be announced live on TNT and TBS on Jan. 30, 2016 at 8 p.m.
