Harrison Ford to Receive SAG-AFTRA Life Achievement Award

Hollywood actor Harrison Ford will receive the SAG-AFTRA Life Achievement Award, the union's highest honor for an actor who exemplifies the ideals of the profession, at a ceremony in Los Angeles next year. The organization announced the selection on Thursday, recognizing Ford's seven-decade career that has defined cinematic icons from Han Solo to Indiana Jones.

The award will be presented during the 32nd Annual Actor Awards, formerly known as the SAG Awards, on March 1, 2026, at the Shrine Auditorium Expo Hall. The event will stream live on Netflix. SAG-AFTRA bestows the prize annually to performers whose contributions have shaped the industry. Ford becomes the 61st recipient, joining past honorees such as Robert De Niro, Jane Fonda, Morgan Freeman, Elizabeth Taylor, Mary Tyler Moore, Sidney Poitier, Betty White and James Earl Jones.

"Harrison Ford is a singular presence in American life, an actor whose iconic characters have shaped world culture," SAG-AFTRA President Sean Astin said in a statement. "His career has been endlessly exciting, always returning to his love of acting. We are honored to celebrate a legend whose impact on our craft is indelible."
