2025 SAG Awards: Zoe Saldana is luminous in floor-length gown as she hits red carpet for Emilia Perez

2025 SAG Awards: Zoe Saldana is luminous in floor-length gown as she hits red carpet for Emilia Perez

Zoe Saldana was luminous in a floor-length gown as she attended the Screen Actors Guild Awards in aid of her Spanish-language Netflix musical Emilia Perez.

The film was tipped for glory this awards season, only for its hopes to be upended by the tweet scandal around its leading lady Karla Sofia Gascon.

Karla, a transgender Spanish actress, was plunged into controversy over years-old tweets about topics like George Floyd and Muslim immigration.

Amid the furor around the film, Zoe cut a serene figure as she hit the red carpet at the Shrine Auditorium in downtown Los Angeles for the SAG Awards. 

The 46-year-old Avatar star was up for two awards that evening – best supporting actress in a motion picture and best ensemble cast of a motion picture.

She oozed glamour on the red carpet, showing off her impressively slender frame in a fitted black off-the-shoulder gown with a single sleeve.

The frock featured a spray of monochrome frills over the sleeve, in a retro chic touch that brought back memories of the 1980s.

Slicking her hair тιԍнтly back, Zoe played up her radiant complexion with naturalistic makeup and accessorized with drop earrings and a glistening bracelet.

She walked the red carpet on the arm of her husband, Italian film producer Marco Perego, whom she has been married to since 2013.

Wicked: Part One leads the nominations at this year’s SAG Awards, with five nods to its name including for Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo. 

The cast are collectively nominated for what is often regarded as the highest honor of the night at the SAGs – outstanding performance by a cast in a motion picture. 

Wicked finds itself in a formidable category, nominated against the Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown starring Timothee Chalamet, among others.

The Catholic drama Conclave led by Ralph Fiennes is also up for that prize, as is the awards season favorite Anora starring Mikey Madison and Yura Borisov.

Rounding out the best ensemble in a motion picture category is the Spanish-language musical Emilia Perez, featuring Selena Gomez, Zoe Saldana and the controversial leading lady Karla Sofia Gascon.

Presented by SAG-AFTRA, Saturday night’s ceremony is the only awards show during the Hollywood season to exclusively honor actors.

The union’s over 130,000 members voted for the 13 prizes that were scheduled to be handled out Saturday over the course of a two-hour ceremony.

A-list stars galore have scored nominations, including Pamela Anderson for The Last Showgirl, Demi Moore for The Substance and Zoe Saldana for Emilia Perez.  

Selena Gomez has two nods – one as part of the ensemble cast of Emilia Perez and one as part of the cast of the sitcom Only Murders In The Building.

Only Murders In The Building is up against The Bear, Hacks, Abbott Elementary and Shrinking for the coveted honor of best ensemble in a comedy series.

Best ensemble in a drama series is another tough category, with Shogun facing off against Bridgerton, Slow Horses and Day Of The Jackal.

Meanwhile, the SAG Life Achievement Award has already been announced as going to Jane Fonda, the 60th recipient of the gong.

SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher, best known as the star of the 1990s sitcom The Nanny, praised Jane as a ‘trailblazer and an extraordinary talent.’

She vaunted Jane as ‘a dynamic force who has shaped the landscape of entertainment, advocacy and culture with unwavering pᴀssion.’ 

This year, the official nomination ceremony for the SAG Awards had to be canceled on account of the devastating Los Angeles fires.

Kristen Bell is hosting the SAG Awards and is also nominated for best actress in a comedy series, against Jean Smart for Hacks, Ayo Edebiri and Liza Colon-Zayas for The Bear and Quinta Brunson for Abbott Elementary.
