Birdman topped the 21st annual Screen Actors Guild Awards, winning best ensemble cast, even though lead star Michael Keaton was upset by Eddie Redmayne in the most outstanding actor category.

Oscar favorites Julianne Moore, Patricia Arquette and J.K. Simmons cemented their front-runner status Sunday in a ceremony that often serves as a preview to the Academy Awards.

Redmayne, who stars as Stephen Hawking in The Theory of Everything, was the surprise winner in a category expected to go to Keaton for his career-capping performance as a Hollywood has-been trying to mount a comeback on Broadway.

Redmayne dedicated his award to sufferers and victims of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
