Zoe Saldaña and Selena Gomez appeared together at the 2025 Sag Awards amid a controversy surrounding their recent film Emilia Perez.
Saldaña, 46, and Gomez, 32, took to the stage during Sunday night’s (23 February) Sag ceremony to introduce their film, which follows a Mexican druglord (Gascón) who undergoes a gender transition.
“Following Jacques's interview that I understand, I decided, for the film, for Jacques, for the cast, for the incredible crew who deserves it, for the beautiful adventure we all had together, to let the work talk for itself," Gascón wrote in an Instagram post on 6 February.
The Netflix musical, in which both actors starred, has been at the centre of a scandal surrounding offensive tweets posted by the film’s lead actor, Karla Sofía Gascón.
Not present at the ceremony was Gascón, who has reportedly been dropped by Netflix from the awards campaign trail, though is expected to attend the Academy Awards later this week.
