Today the nominations for the the 19th Screen Actors Guild were announced in Los Angeles.
The actors of Ben Affleck’s thriller Argo and historical drama Lincoln were among the top nominees for the Screen Actors Guild film awards on Wednesday, with both landing in the category for best ensemble cast.
