The silver carpet appearance of the 30th Annual SAG Awards has already kick-started with swarming stars, keeping their eyes on the prize. Among the sea of celebrities, a starlit exchange took place between the Maestro director Bradley Cooper and Jessica Chastain. As the two talked about plans following the consecutive trophy seasons, Cooper revealed a time-out schedule with his laid-back response, “I’m gonna rest a little”. Chastain, however, was not so easy to let go with that answer as it seemed he already had plans in order to gain a nomination at the next SAG Awards.

Pressing some more on the details, the actor expressed his wish to do a “movie with Will Arnett”. Cooper arrived at the SAG Awards for his 2023 film Maestro with 2 nominations up his sleeve. While Maestro has managed to spread its magic on the screens and the red carpets quite a few times, let’s see if the Maestro master can repeat the same for the big stage tonight as well.

The 2023 biographical romantic drama has been in the run this award season with some of the stellar competitors of the cinematic universe. As a result, despite the Golden Globe snub, the movie received its token of appreciation from the Deadpool & Wolverine showrunners, Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman. With such starry vouchers, Maestro’s run in the accolade period is keeping many eyes glued to the screens.

While indeed Maestro remains one of the biggest contenders this season, there remains a probable chance of it making big tonight as well as in the upcoming Oscar Awards due to its convincing nominations.

Maestro’s SAG and Oscar nominations

Maestro’s touchdown at Netflix last year was surely worth the hype. Whether it is from the nods of approval from the biggest stars of the industry or sweeping the nomination list this award season, the movie has done it all. The double-nominee for tonight will be competing against its contemporaries at the Shrine Auditorium in LA for Female and Male Actors in Leading Roles, respectively. 

Moving further, the movie will again straighten its cut-throat competitive skills at the 96th Oscar Awards with seven nominations. Starting from the Best Picture category, the Maestro stars will also ride on the racetrack for Best Actor and Actress, Best Original Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Makeup and Hairstyling, and Best Sound. As tonight could be a game-changing expansion for Maestro’s trophy closet, do not forget to tune into the SAG Awards to witness the history.
