A cinematic obsessive with the filmic palate of a starving raccoon, Rob London will watch pretty much anything once. With a mind like a steel trap, he's an endless fount of movie and TV trivia, borne from a misspent youth of watching monster movies on TV, perusing the sun-faded goods at the local video rental shop, and staining his fingers with ink from the Video Movie Guide. Areas of interest include science fiction, film noir, horror flicks, '70s disaster pictures, Bond movies, '90s action, giant robots, dinosaurs, super heroes, and the exuberantly schlocky output of Cannon Films. He also enjoys both Star Trek and Star Wars when they're good, and maybe even more when they're bad. As a Canadian, he also has a vested interest in Canadian movies and TV shows, especially the cheesier ones dubbed "Canuxploitation."
An expert on Marvel Comics, he has also written for the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe, and is a member of the Marvel Research Team. He can frequently be found pontificating on comic-book continuity or bemoaning the misfortunes of the Toronto Maple Leafs on his Twitter account.

The Actor Awards (formerly known as the Screen Actors Guild Awards) were presented in Hollywood tonight, at a ceremony hosted by three-time host Kristen Bell. Separating them from other awards shows, the Actor Awards not only award individual performances, but also outstanding performances by an ensemble. This year's Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series category was a murderers' row of acclaimed dramatic series, but in the end only one could win: this year, that's rookie medical drama The Pitt.
The Pitt's ensemble includes Amielynn Abellera, Shabana Azeez, Patrick Ball, Isa Briones, Jalen Thomas Brooks, Taylor Dearden, Fiona Dourif, Supriya Ganesh, Joanna Going, Gerran Howell, Michael Hyatt, Tracy Ifeachor, Katherine LaNasa, Krystel V. McNeil, Brandon Mendez Homer, Alexandra Metz, Tracy Vilar, Kristin Villanueva, and Noah Wyle. The Pitt also won the other award it was nominated for: the Actor Award for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Drama Series, which went to leading man Wyle. Other programs nominated in the category include The Diplomat, Landman, Severance, and The White Lotus. The White Lotus is the only previous winner that was up for the award this year; it won in 2022 for its second, Italy-set season. Severance was also nominated that year, and The Diplomat was a nominee last year, while Landman, like The Pitt, was nominated in its first season.
Who Were the Other Nominees for the Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series Actor Award?
The dramatic ensemble category was challenging this year, but The Pitt had the inside track to success; its spiritual successor, ER, took the award four times in the 1990s. And while The Diplomat lost this category, it didn't go home empty-handed, as series lead Keri Russell took the Actor Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Drama Series. The other nominees are as follows:
The Diplomat – Ali Ahn, Penny Downie, Rosaline Elbay, Ato Essandoh, David Gyasi, Rory Kinnear, Nana Mensah, Graham Miller, Keri Russell, and Rufus Sewell
Landman – Paulina Chávez, Mark Collie, Sam Elliott, Colm Feore, Andy Garcia, James Jordan, Ali Larter, Jacob Lofland, Caleb Martin, Demi Moore, Michelle Randolph, Mustafa Speaks, Billy Bob Thornton, and Kayla Wallace
Severance – Patricia Arquette, Sarah Bock, Michael Chernus, Zach Cherry, Dichen Lachman, Britt Lower, Darri Ólafsson, Adam Scott, Tramell Tillman, Jen Tullock, John Turturro, and Christopher Walken
The White Lotus – Leslie Bibb, Carrie Coon, Nicholas Duvernay, Arnas Fedaravicius, Christian Friedel, Scott Glenn, Walton Goggins, Jon Gries, Dom Hetrakul, Sarah Catherine Hook, Jason Isaacs, Yuri Kolokolnikov, Julian Kostov, Charlotte Le Bon, Lalisa Manobal, Michelle Monaghan, Sam Nivola, Morgana O'Reilly, Lek Patravadi, Shalini Peiris, Parker Posey, Sam Rockwell, Natasha Rothwell, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Tayme Thapthimthong, and Aimee Lou Wood
Another big winner tonight is AppleTV's Hollywood satire The Studio. It took home both individual comedy acting categories (for Seth Rogen and the late Catherine O'Hara) and for best comedic ensemble.
The Pitt is now streaming on HBO Max. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.
