The 2026 Actor Awards, formerly known as the SAG Awards, are underway in Los Angeles.
With six movie categories and nine TV categories up for grabs, the 32nd Actor Award winners will be announced in a Los Angeles ceremony that will be livestreamed on Netflix and hosted again by Kristen Bell. Harrison Ford received the SAG-AFTRA Life Achievement Award during the prestigious ceremony.
The late Catherine O’Hara won for her work on the Apple TV comedy series The Studio, with the show’s creator, Seth Rogan, delivering an emotional speech to accept the trophy on her behalf. The series led the TV categories with the most nominations at five.
One Battle After Another leads this year’s nominations with seven nods, one in every motion picture category, with Sinners following closely behind with five. Another contender for this year’s film awards is Josh Safdie’s ping pong hit Marty Supreme. Timothée Chalamet’s electric performance in the movie earned him a Best Actor nomination, meaning he could take it home for the second year in a row after last year’s win for playing Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown.
Below is the 2026 list of winners in full. This list is being updated live.
