The competition was fierce at SAG-AFTRA's 2026 Actor Awards. Kristen Bell hosted the Sunday, March 1, event, held at the Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall in Los Angeles, for the third year in a row. Bell, 45, has been the only official emcee for the annual ceremony, previously known as the SAG Awards, since 2018. (The show has often opted to go host-free.) This year, the Nobody Wants This star promised plenty of comedic fodder regarding the name change while steering clear of any political commentary. "It's a political-free zone," Bell told USA Today earlier this month.
