Three Billboards Top Winner of the Night with SAG Award for Outstanding Cast in a Motion Picture
The cast of Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri took home the big prize for film at the 2018 Screen Actors Guild Awards.
Presented by Oscar winners Brie Larson and Lupita Nyong’o, actress Frances McDormand accepted the outstanding cast in a motion picture honor on behalf of the cast, just minutes after accepting the best actress award for her role in the film.
“All we kids of Ebbing, Missouri, would like to thank our papas, Martin McDonagh, Graham Broadbent, Ben Davis our cinematographer, and Gregory, our editor. You made us what we are,” McDormand said. “Our mamas, Mama Dixon, Sandy Martin! And our casting director, Sarah Finn. And our godparents, Fox Searchlight and Film4.”
During Sunday evening’s ceremony, the movie picked up three out of its four nominations, including outstanding performance by a female actor in a leading role for McDormand and outstanding performance by a male actor in a leading role for Sam Rockwell.
