The 2026 Actor Awards are back, with Kristen Bell at the helm of the SAG-AFTRA event for a second year in a row. Bell’s participation is just the tip of the iceberg for what to expect from the recently-renamed awards, which are set to stream on Netflix on Sunday, March 1.
Also worth tuning in for: Shrinking star and Hollywood icon Harrison Ford will be honored with SAG-AFTRA’s Life Achievement Award on Sunday evening.
