SAG Swayed by Foxx, "Sideways"

Jamie Foxx's peers have rewarded him for a series of jobs well done.

The hardworking star is contending for a reocrd four awards at the 11th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards, including Best Actor and an Ensemble acting nod for his performance in Ray, Best Supporting Actor for his work in Collateral and Best Actor in a TV Movie or Miniseries for FX's Redemption.

"I am so blessed to be recognized by my peers," Foxx said Tuesday. "The most important nomination to me, though, is the one acknowledging the tremendous work of the entire cast of Ray, with whom I am honored to continue to share this remarkable journey."

Indie superstar Sideways also nabbed a quartet of nominations Tuesday morning, including a Best Actor nod for Paul Giamatti, and Best Supporting Actor and Actress nods for Thomas Haden Church and Virginia Madsen, as well as an Ensemble acting nod for the road-tripping, wine-swilling cast.

Finding Neverland found itself triple-nominated, raking in a Best Actor nomination for Johnny Depp and a Best Supporting Actor nom for his young costar, Freddie Highmore, as well as an Ensemble nomination for the cast.

The Aviator was flying high with a Best Actor nomination for Leonardo DiCaprio, a Best Supporting Actress nod for Cate Blanchett and an Ensemble nod for the cast.

Heavy-hitter Hilary Swank pulled in a nomination for Best Actress and an Ensemble nod for her hard-muscled performance in Million Dollar Baby, as well as a third nomination for Best Actress in a TV Movie or Miniseries for her work in HBO's suffragette tale, Iron Jawed Angels.

On the small-screen side, Patricia Heaton accounted for three nods herself--Best Actress in a Comedy Series and Best Ensemble, Comedy Series for Everybody Loves Raymond, as well as Best Actress in a TV Movie or Miniseries nomination for her work in TNT's Neil Simon's The Goodbye Girl.

The Sopranos earned four nominations in all, including competing Best Actress in a Drama Series nods for Edie Falco and Drea de Matteo. James Gandolfini nabbed a Best Actor nom and the entire cast was nominated in the Best Ensemble, Drama category.

Desperate Housewives star Teri Hatcher was the sole resident of Wisteria Lane to be individually nominated for Best Actress in a Comedy Series; however, the entire cast of ABC's newcomer sensation was nominated in the Best Ensemble, Comedy category.

Notably snubbed was ABC's other new sensation, Lost, which was entirely shut out, despite its monster ratings.

Also lagging was Six Feet Under, which scored only an Ensemble Drama nomination as it prepares to head into its fifth and final season. Last year, the show earned Best Actor and Actress noms for Peter Krause and Frances Conroy in additional to an Ensemble nod for the cast. Conroy and the cast went on to win their categories at the 2004 SAG Awards.

The late Jerry Orbach earned a sentimental nod for Best Actor in a Drama Series for his longtime portrayal of Detective Lennie Briscoe on Law & Order. It was his first nomination in the Best Actor category, though he had been nominated nine times previously in the Ensemble category. Orbach died last month of prostate cancer at the age of 69.

For the first time ever, the recipient of the SAG Life Achievement Award also scored an individual SAG nomination. James Garner, who will receive the 41st Annual Life Achievement Award in recognition of his accomplished career and humanitarian contributions, also earned a Best Supporting Actor Nod for his work in The Notebook.

The 11th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards will be presented at a Feb. 5 ceremony in Los Angeles. Here's a complete roundup of the nominees:
