'Up in the Air,' 'Precious' Lead SAG Noms

December 17, 2009 Awards Shows

"Up in the Air," "Precious" and "Inglourious Basterds" each earned three Screen Actors Guild Award nominations Thursday -- topping the list.

Brad Pitt's "Basterds" is up against "Precious," "An Education," "The Hurt Locker" and "Nine" in the guild's overall cast prize. George Clooney's "Air" was shut out of the category.

Still, Clooney was recognized with a lead-actor nomination. His co-stars, Vera Farmiga and Anna Kendrick, nabbed supporting actress nods.
