The SAG Awards will stream Saturday live on Netflix. Here's what to know

Since Netflix launched into original films, the streaming service has been an annual force in Hollywood's awards season. On Saturday, at the Screen Actors Guild Awards, it will play host, too.

The 30th Screen Actors Guild Awards will for the first time stream live on Netflix, beginning at 8 p.m. Eastern. The ceremony, taking place at the Shrine Auditorium & Expo Hall in Los Angeles, should find a much larger audience than it has in recent years — and not just because it presents another battle between “Oppenheimer” and “Barbie,” the lead nominees.

After more than two decades airing on TNT and TBS to dwindling viewership, Netflix acquired telecast rights to the SAG Awards in early 2023. Last year, before Netflix could ready its platform for the event, the SAG Awards streamed live on Netflix's YouTube channel. This time, the SAGs will be live to Netflix's 260 million global subscribers.
