Musical romantic drama "A Star Is Born" led the film nominations for the 25th annual Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards announced Wednesday.

"A Star Is Born" topped all the film nominees with a total of four, including best ensemble, best actor for Bradley Cooper, best actress for Lady Gaga and best supporting actor for Sam Elliott as the Screen Actor Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) released its official nominations Wednesday morning at the Pacific Design Center's SilverScreen Theater in West Hollywood in the western US state of California.

The 25th annual SAG Awards, one of the awards season's premier events, will honor outstanding performances from 2018 in five film categories and eight television categories, including the distinctive ensemble awards in both media.

Distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures and directed by Cooper in his directorial debut, "A Star Is Born" is the remake of the 1937 film of the same name. The film stars Cooper and pop singer Lady Gaga, among others. The plot follows a hard-drinking musician who discovers and falls in love with a young singer, Lady Gaga's first lead role on the big screen.

With a production budget of $36 million, "A Star Is Born" has grossed over $197.3 million in North America for a global total of $370.8 million as of Monday, according to the studio figures collected by Box Office Mojo. It was chosen by the American Film Institute as one of the Top 10 Films of 2018 and received five Golden Globes nominations last week.
