Michael J. Fox made a surprise appearance at SAG-AFTRA's 2026 Actor Awards, closing out the famed "I Am an Actor" opening sequence. "When I left school and moved from Canada to L.A. to start making it as an actor, a teacher of mine told me, 'Fox, you're not going to be cute forever,'" Fox, 64, said to widespread applause. "So I said, 'Maybe just long enough, sir.' After a few years of dumpster diving in L.A., I ended up on Family Ties, where I received the biggest gift of my career: I met my wife, actor Tracy Pollan, who played Ellen, my girlfriend.
