It’s time for the Actor Awards! Before the 2026 Oscars celebrate the best films of the year — and the people who made them — the SAG Actor Awards celebrate the best acting performances of 2025 across film and TV.

The whole thing, including a red carpet pre-show, will stream live on Netflix. Here’s what you to watch the Actor Awards this year.

How to watch the Actor Awards live:Who is hosting the 2026 Actor Awards?
Kristen Bell will host the awards for the third time. The Nobody Wants This star plans to put a positive spin on her hosting role.
“I don’t roast. It’s not in me,” Bell told Deadline in an interview about her game plan. “If I’m going to roast anyone, it’s going to be me. That’s what’s funniest to me. So it will be light and goofy and hopefully still make you laugh. But I want everyone to feel welcome.”

The full list of presenters at this year’s Actor Awards has yet to be announced. However, we do know that Bridgerton’s Season 4 diamond, Yerin Ha, will serve as this year's Ambassador, providing fans with “exclusive behind-the-scenes access to the awards ceremony."
Harrison Ford will receive this year's Life Achievement Award.
