This Sunday, March 1, the awards ceremony formerly known as the Screen Actors Guild Awards—now technically the “Actor Awards presented by SAG-AFTRA”—streams live on Netflix, celebrating the greatest performers and ensembles in film and television… and sounding the final countdown to the 2026 Academy Awards in two weeks. Here’s everything you need to know about the broadcast.
How can I watch the Actor Awards?
The 32nd Annual Actor Awards Presented by SAG-AFTRA (did you get all that?), at the Shrine Auditorium Expo Hall in Los Angeles, streams live on Netflix tonight, March 1, from 8 p.m. ET.
For red carpet coverage, you can tune in to E! from 6 p.m. ET or watch The Actor’s Red Carpet: The 32nd Annual Actor Awards Official Pre-Show on Netflix from 7 p.m. ET. Intriguingly, this year’s carpet will have a theme: ’20s- and ’30s-era glamour.
