Austin Butler was sitting at the front of the room at the Screen Actors Guild Awards on Feb. 26, and he had the honor of escorting some of the lovely ladies in the audience onstage during the show. When Sally Field hit the stage to accept her Lifetime Achievement Award honor from Andrew Garfield, Austin was quickly by her side to make sure she got onstage ok. He took her arm and gently led her up the stairs so she could give her acceptance speech.

Later on in the show, Austin was put to work once again when Jennifer Coolidge won the award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Drama Series. Jennifer also got a helping hand from Austin, who could be seen making sure that he was ready to go once she made her way to the front of the room. Once again, Austin made sure the actress was safely onstage without tripping. The perfect gentleman!

Austin was also nominated at the SAG Awards, earning a nomination for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role for his portrayal of Elvis Presley. However, he lost to Brendan Fraser in the category. The actor looked handsome at the event, wearing a maroon suit that differentiated him a bit from the other black tuxes in the audience. The SAG Awards were a star-studded event, with the biggest stars in TV and movies from the past year being honored. The SAG Awards winners were chosen by their peers in the Screen Actors Guild.
