SAG Awards nominations and premieres cancelled as wildfires hit Los Angeles The Screen Actors Guild Awards have cancelled a live nominations announcement because of the wildfires in Los Angeles.
The Hollywood premieres of Unstoppable, starring Jennifer Lopez, and Ryan Gosling-produced Wolf Man had already been cancelled with a “don’t wait, evacuate” order issued for the area by the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services.
“Tonight’s premiere of Wolf Man is cancelled due to sensitivities around the worsening weather situation in LA and related evacuations,” a Universal spokesperson told the PA news agency.
Film premieres have been cancelled after 30,000 people living in the Pacific Palisades neighbourhood, home to a string of A-list celebrities, were ordered to evacuate, while a second fast-moving wildfire broke out in nearby Altadena.
The star-studded premiere of Unstoppable, a biopic of US wrestler Anthony Robles who won a national championship with one leg, was also cancelled following the evacuation orders.
