SAG Honors STAR TREK For Best Stunt Ensemble


Even though this wasn’t the award for Best Ensemble Cast, this past Saturday the sixteenth annual Screen Actors Guild Awards bestowed the honor of Best Stunt Ensemble in a Motion Picture to J. J. Abrams’ “Star Trek”, beating out “Public Enemies” and “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen”.  This is positive affirmation that this blockbuster film has broken out of the sci-fi box and seated firmly in the mainstream consciousness.

Other sci-fi nominees included HBO’s “True Blood” for Best Ensemble Cast in a Drama Series and NBC’s “Heroes” for Best Stunt Ensemble in the Television Series.  Here is a complete list of nominees and winners.
