Kristen Bell Returns to Host the 32nd Annual Actor Awards on March 1, Streaming Live on Netflix

Bell promises a welcoming, non-political tone to put the room at ease.

Overview

  • The newly renamed Actor Awards, presented by SAG-AFTRA, will air globally at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.
  • It will be Bell’s third turn as emcee for the ceremony formerly known as the SAG Awards.
  • She says she will skip roasts and heavy political talk, opting for light “goofs” designed to make everyone feel welcome.
  • She may sing if a concept serves the show, building on her well-received 2025 parody number.
  • She says beta blockers help calm stage nerves and notes the importance of reading the room after last year’s show followed deadly Los Angeles fires.
