History was made at the 28th annual Screen Actors Guild Awards with Apple's indie family drama, CODA making history for winning best ensemble in a movie, and actor Troy Kotsur for best supporting actor, making him the first-ever deaf actor to win an individual SAG award. Kotsur, whose acceptance speech was signed said “Now I feel I’m finally part of the family.” “I know you all are artists, and I know you all know what it’s like to be a starving actor. Back then I used to sleep in my car, I slept in my dressing room backstage, I couch-surfed and all of that. You feel me, right? So thank you so much,” the actor added.


Kotsur beat out Ben Affleck, Bradley Cooper, Kodi Smit-McPhee, and Jared Leto to win the award for best supporting actor.


Will Smith won the award for Outstanding Performance by a male actor in a leading role for the movie "King Richard", making it his first SAG award. Hollywood's Jessica Chastain won the award for Outstanding Performance by a female actor in a leading role for the movie The Eyes Of Tammy Faye.


“It was a dream of mine to play Tammy Faye,” Chastain said.


“I worked on the project for 10 years and I hope we made the story in a way that she would be proud of.”


“I love my artistic family and my heart is with our international family who is all around the world right now and fighting for their safety and their freedom,” the actress added.


Award recipients used the platform to express solidarity with the people of Ukraine during the ongoing conflict with Russia.


British actress Helen Mirren received the lifetime achievement award. The full list of the winners is below:
