And the nominees are …
The nominations for The Actor Awards were announced Wednesday in Los Angeles by Abbott Elementary’s Janelle James and Heated Rivalry star Connor Storrie.
Formerly known as the Screen Actors Guild Awards — or SAG Awards — 2026 marks the first time they’re running under their new name, after Netflix picked up the ceremony in 2023. The ceremony takes place Sunday, March 1 at the Shrine Auditorium in LA, with Netflix streaming it live; No host has yet been announced, while Harrison Ford will be presented with the lifetime achievement award.
On the film side, One Battle After Another came out on top with seven nominations, while Sinners was close behind with five. Surprisingly, only Ariana Grande scored a nomination for Wicked: For Good, with Cynthia Erivo and the cast as a whole failing to get recognized.
For television, it was The Studio in the lead with five noms, while The White Lotus picked up four.
