Decked out in shimmery brown and bronze, Angela Bassett joined actor Eric McCormack and SAG President Alan Rosenberg to announce nominations for the Screen Actors Guild Awards.

God, once awards season starts, there's no stopping it until every single bronze, gold, glittery statuette has been handed out. And since the SAG Awards cover both television and film, the list of nominations is LONG.

Except for Melissa Leo, who is nominated for her performance in Frozen River, the Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role nominations are filled with powerhouse stars Angelina Jolie, Meryl Streep, Kate Winslet and Anne Hathaway.

Their male counterparts include Sean Penn, Brad Pitt, Frank Langella, Mickey Rourke and Richard Jenkins.
