The 28th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards take place tomorrow night, and with the boycott of the Golden Globes and other award shows pushed back due to Covid concerns, the SAG Awards are suddenly the first big award ceremony of the year, giving viewers a first glimpse into who could be claiming the big prizes on this year’s award season circuit.
Want to watch the SAG Awards? There are a few ways to watch the ceremony from home on TV or live stream the SAG Awards online.

SAG Awards 2022: Nominees, Ambassadors, Host
House of Gucci and The Power of the Dog lead the 2022 SAG nominees on the movie side, while Succession, The Morning Show and Ted Lasso are among the top SAG nominees on the television side.
Unlike the Oscars, the SAG Awards will not have a host this year and the show is expected to use different actors to introduce each segment and award. Actors Alexandra Daddario and Ross Butler, meantime, have been named Ambassadors for the 28th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards, and both Daddario and Butler will present on the show, and provide viewers with exclusive behind-the-scenes access to the ceremony on social media.
The Screen Actors Guild says the Daddario and Butler were chosen based in the way they “exemplify the utmost values of the profession and are positive role models for the next generation of performers.”
The SAG Awards are expected to open with a performance from Hamilton stars Lin-Manuel Miranda, Daveed Diggs, and Leslie Odom Jr. Helen Mirren, meantime, is set to receive the 57th annual Lifetime Achievement Award.
Watch the SAG Awards tomorrow night at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT live on TNT and TBS. Or live stream the SAG Awards online free through Sling TV here.
