SAG-AFTRA’s 2026 Actor Awards was a star-studded night to remember.
Some of Hollywood’s biggest names gathered on Sunday, March 1, at the Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall in Los Angeles to celebrate the best of film and TV. With Kristen Bell as host, the awards show honored Harrison Ford with a Lifetime Achievement and handed out a win to the late Catherine O’Hara, who died in January at age 71, for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Comedy Series.
After the awards show, stars celebrated at Netflix’s afterparty at Milk Studios — where an eyewitness exclusively told Us Weekly there was a “wild dance party.”
“Everyone was truly letting loose and having a great time,” the insider says, noting that Jenna Ortega was “the star of the show” and “being thrown around on the dance floor by various guests. She was having a great night.”
Us Weekly reached out to Netflix for comment.
