I just read that last night the Screen Actors Guild gave their best Ensemble Acting award to Return of the King and their best actor award to Johnny Depp. Really!! Interesting since the awards are voted on by other actors.
Yay for Johnny Depp, but too bad he didn’t bother to show up to the awards ceremony.
Yes - but the show was in LA, I think and he was working in London…and I have read way too much celebrity news lately. Anyhow, I bet he didn’t think he could possibly have won.
Do other actors dislike Johnny?
I don’t think so, I think it’s more that there’s so much attention focused on either Bill Murray or Sean Penn plus the fact that comedy roles tend to get the shaft in awards. It was more of a genuine surprise than any ill feeling toward Johnny Depp himself.
Can someone tell me what was going on with Sean Astin’s bit about actors coming together to bring movie production back to the US? I mean, I understand the idea, but it’s it a little weird to say this when you’re up there for a movie that was filmed and created outside the US featuring a cast from all over? Maybe I missed something.
Hehe. Check out the backstage pic after the awards.
