For movies, Wicked leads the pack with five nominations. Shgun is the most celebrated television series, also with five nominations.Because of its performance focus, the SAG Awards nominations also honor actors whom the Oscars have overlooked or snubbed, such as Queers Daniel Craig, The Last Showgirls Pamela Anderson and Jamie Lee Curtis, and Wickeds Jonathan Bailey. Stunt personals also get some love here with shows and films such as Fall Guy and The House of the Dragon up for awards in these categories. You can find the full list of nominations here.Beyond the competitive categories, actor and activist Jane Fonda will be presented with a Lifetime Achievement Award. Her impressive resume already includes two Oscars, two BAFTAs, seven Golden Globe Awards, and a Primetime Emmy Award.What about the SAG Awards pre-show?Since 2023, Netflix has been responsible for airing the ceremony. It also has the official pre-show coverage. This kicks off one hour before the official awards show, so tune in at 7 p.m. ET / 4 p.m. PT to catch it. Hosts Lilly Singh and Sasheer Zamata will guide viewers through all the fashion and interviews, and even announce the stunt award winners.Another alternative is to stream People and Entertainment Weeklys live-streamed coverage on YouTube. This will feature Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Bronwyn Newports hot take on the evening. She will be joined by People editor at large Janine Rubenstein, EW general manager Patrick Gomez, and EW editorial director of TV and music Gerrad Hall.Who is the host of the SAG Awards?The SAG Awards dont always have a host, but this year Kristen Bell is stepping up to the plate. This isnt her first rodeo and she initially balked at the idea of having awards ceremonies after the devastating Eaton and Palisades fires that greatly impacted large portions of the Los Angeles area in the beginning of the year. She later had a change of heart and saw the bigger picture. Beyond the glamour and spectacle, award shows create and drive a massive ecosystem of professionals and services.I realized these awards shows are a huge part of Los Angeles economy, employing hundreds, if not thousands, of gig workers: drivers, hair and makeup artists, musicians, Bell stated to USA Today.Tune into Netflix at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT to see Bell and the rest of the acting community in action.
