Odds for betting on the SAG Awards are posted at several online entertainment sportsbooks, allowing players to shop around to find the actors that will pay out the best.

For instance, compare the SAG odds for Best Actor offered by Bovada and BetOnline.

SAG Nominations For Best Male Actor

Outstanding Performance By A Male Actor In A Leading Role

Cillian Murphy (Oppenheimer) -165
Paul Giamatti (The Holdovers) +125

Colman Domingo, Rustin +1800
BetOnline*

Oppenheimer’s Cillian Murphy holds the highest odds to win the SAG Award for Best Male Actor, but how much you can win by betting on him depends on where you place the wager.

Bovada has posted a moneyline of -165 on Murphy, and BetOnline is offering -250. You’ll only have to risk $1.65 to net a dollar at Bovada, while that same result will cost you $2.50 at BetOnline. This is why it is advantageous to shop the odds for the best sportsbook payouts.

SAG Nominations For Best Female Actor

Outstanding Performance By A Female Actor In A Leading Role

Lily Gladstone (Killers Of The Flower Moon) -115
Emma Stone (Poor Things) -125
Margot Robbie (Barbie) +1000
Carey Mulligan (Maestro) +2000
Annette Bening (Nyad) +2500

Emma Stone, Poor Things -500
Lily Gladstone, Killers Of The Flower Moon +320
Margot Robbie, Barbie +800
Carey Mulligan, Maestro +2500
Annette Bening, Nyad +2800
BetOnline*

For the above two SAG props for Best Actress, there are differing favorites. This is pretty rare in 2024, and if you think Lily Gladstone will win for her performance in Killers of the Flower Moon, the place to bet is BetOnline.

Gladstone will payout at multiples of 3.2x at BetOnline, while at Bovada, you’ll have to bet $1.15 to net a dollar.

SAG Nominations For Best Cast (Movie)

Outstanding Performance By A Cast In A Motion Picture

Oppenheimer -600
Barbie +450
American Fiction +900
Killers Of The Flower Moon +2000
The Color Purple +2500
Bovada

BEST CAST MOTION PICTURE

Oppenheimer -500
Barbie +350
American Fiction +900
The Killers Of The Flower Moon +1200
The Color Purple +2000
BetUS*

Barbie got snubbed at the 2024 BAFTA Awards, and the film is positioned for a similar result at the SAG Awards if you buy into what entertainment prop bets are suggesting. However, if you plan on placing a Barbie bet for them to win for Best Cast, do so at Bovada earn earn an extra dollar per $1 wagered.

Outstanding Comedy Actor (Male)

Best Actor: Comedy

Jeremy Allen White, The Bear -900
Bill Hader, Barry +600
Jason Sudeikis, Ted Lasso +800

Jason Sudeikis – Ted Lasso +900
Bill Hader – Barry +500
Ebon Moss-Bachrach – The Bear +1000
Brett Goldstein – Ted Lasso +1200
BetUS*

While The Bear’s Jeremy Allen White looks like a shoo-in to win Best Actor, you can risk a lot less of your own money by betting on him at BetUS. Although there are five nominations in this category, only three shows are represented – The Bear, Barry, and Ted Lasso.

Outstanding Comedy (Actor Female)

Best Actress: Comedy 

Ayo Edebiri, The Bear -900

Quinta Brunson – Abbott Elementary +800
Rachel Brosnahan – The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel +1000
Alex Borstein – The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel +1200
BetUS*

Once again, an actor from The Bear is a heavy favorite to win. This time, it is Ayo Edebir holding the lead in Best Actress in a Comedy Series prop bets, with all other nominees possessing moneyline odds that are +700 or higher.

The above SAG Awards odds for 2024 are subject to change, and they likely will experience a shift between now and Saturday evening.
