Yorgos Lanthimos‘ awards season continues to ramp up with his film Poor Things being nominated for a number of Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards for 2024.
Featuring stellar performances from Emma Stone, Willem Dafoe, and Mark Ruffalo, Poor Things captivates festival attendees with its eccentric narrative of a woman brought back to life after suicide by a deranged doctor who replaces her brain with that of her unborn child.
According to ABC News, Stone, who plays the role of Bella Baxter in Poor Things, has been nominated for ‘Outstanding performance by a female actor in a leading role’ at the SAG Awards.
Fellow castmate and seasoned actor Dafoe has also been nominated for ‘Outstanding performance by a male actor in a supporting role.’
These SAG Awards nominations come after Poor Things also won two Golden Globe awards on Monday for ‘Best picture — Musical/Comedy’ and  ‘Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy’ (for Stone).
Lanthimos will find out whether he will also win a SAG Award during an award ceremony on February 25 at 11am AEST.
