This year’s award season has been one crazy rollercoaster ride, and things got even more intense at the SAG Awards. The Trial of the Chicago 7, The Crown, and Schitt’s Creek come out as the biggest winners on the night full of historic victories and unexpected surprises.

The cast of Aaron Sorkin’s Chicago 7 picked up the award for the best ensemble in a motion picture, beating the likes of Minari and Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom. It was a historic night for the cast member Michael Keaton, who became the first actor in SAG history to pick up the award in this category on three separate occasions.

Actors of color made history in other acting categories, where the awards went to the Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom leads Chadwick Boseman and Viola Davis, Minari’s Youn Yuh-jung, and Daniel Kaluuya for Judas and the Black Messiah.

Robert De Niro reminded us of his glory days with the roles in this year’s films The Irishman and Joker, and SAG-AFTRA bosses felt it’s the perfect time to honor him with the life achievement award at the upcoming Screen Actor Guild Awards ceremony.

De Niro has been one of Hollywood’s most celebrated actors since he rose to prominence during the ‘70s with his roles in Taxi Driver and The Godfather: Part II. Frequent collaboration with Martin Scorsese gave us some of the best movies of his career, including Raging Bull, Casino, and Goodfellas.

The SAG-AFTRA president Gabrielle Carteris praised De Niro’s ability to “touch our hearts and open our minds to new and exciting worlds of understanding and emotion” in an official statement announcing their decision to honor two-time Oscar winner with this award.

Robert De Niro also released a statement saying it’s an honor to receive this prestigious award from SAG-AFTRA after being a member of this guild for over five decades. He’ll be presented with this accolade at the 26th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards, taking place on January 19th, 2020.
