LOS ANGELES -- Straight Outta Compton is back in business as an Oscar contender with a Screen Actors Guild Award nomination for best ensemble, as is Trumbo, which led the pack with three nominations.

Netflix joins the awards-film scrum this year with Beasts of No Nation, which picked up SAG nominations for Best Ensemble and a supporting nod for Idris Elba. Other multiple nominees included The Big Short, Steve Jobs, Carol and Oscar front-runner Spotlight.

And Netflix easily led the television categories with eight nominations total, including three for House of Cards: ensemble, drama actor (Kevin Spacey) and drama actress (Robin Wright). The streaming network also picked up nods for comedy ensemble (Orange is the New Black), comedy actress (Uzo Aduba for Orange and Ellie Kemper for Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt), miniseries actor (Bill Murray, A Very Murray Christmas) and stunt ensemble (Daredevil).
