Wondering how to live stream the 2026 SAG Awards? Well, this is an easy one.
Awards season is inching ever closer to its big event, the Academy Awards, on March 15, but there's another very important show before the Oscars: the Screen Actors Guild Awards! OK, so they're technically not called the Screen Actors Guild Awards anymore and now go by the “Actor Awards," but the event itself hasn't changed.
The SAG/Actor Awards began in 1995 and nominations come from members of the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists, also known as SAG-AFTRA. SAG-AFTRA members nominate and vote for their peers, so winning an Actor Award can be extra meaningful for a performer. In short, the Actor Awards are by actors, for actors, and if you win one, you're typically more likely to snag the Oscar too!
Previously, the SAG/Actor Awards aired on the cable TV networks TNT and TBS, but they've since shifted over to Netflix. Ahead, here's how to watch the 2026 SAG/Actor Awards from the comfort of your home, no gown or tuxedo required.
When are the Actor Awards?
The ceremony takes place on Sunday, March 1, 2026 at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. The show begins at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.
How can I watch the Actor Awards?
You'll need a Netflix membership or login to stream the show this year, as the SAG/Actor Awards and Netflix have a multi-year partnership. Kristen Bell will host for a third time. Netflix memberships start at $7.99 per month for the basic subscription, which includes ads; the standard subscription sans ads is $17.99 per month, and a premium membership is $24.99 per month.
Who is nominated for the Actor Awards?
One Battle After Another is the most-nominated film this year, with stars Chase Infiniti, Teyana Taylor, Benicio Del Toro, and Leonardo DiCaprio all nominated for their work. (The movie earned seven nominations in total.) Ariana Grande scored a nom for Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role for Wicked: For Good, and Timothée Chalamet is nominated for Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role for Marty Supreme. Sinners earned five nominations, including acting nods for stars Michael B. Jordan, Wunmi Mosaku, and Miles Caton. Jacob Elordi was nominated for his role in Frankenstein.
The SAG/Actor Awards also honor television work, and awards-season favorites The Studio, Adolescence, and The White Lotus lead the pack of nominees. We're rooting for Wednesday star Jenna Ortega, who is nominated for Performance by a Female Actor in a Comedy Series.
