As we begin to explore streaming live on Netflix, we look forward to partnering with SAG-AFTRA to elevate and expand this special ceremony as a global live event in 2024 and beyond.”

Under the new deal, Netflix will also use its wide range of social media channels to promote the event, as well as broadcast the ceremony on its YouTube. channel. The ceremony will be presented by SAG-AFTRA with Screen Actors Guild Awards, LLC and executive produced by Jon Brockett and produced by Avalon Harbor Entertainment.

Ashley Park (“Emily in Paris”) and Haley Lu Richardson (“The White Lotus”) will announce the nominees for the 29th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards this morning at 7 am PT, and via Instagram Live at instagram.com/sagawards. and instagram.com/Netflix.

One of the premier events of awards season, the SAG Awards annually celebrate the year’s most outstanding film and television performances, voted for by more than 122,000 SAG-AFTRA artists. Created by SAG-AFTRA in 1995, the union numbers thousands of entertainment and media professionals, including actors, stuntmen, broadcasters, musicians, journalists, dancers, influencers and many other industry professionals.

The deal marks Netflix’s second foray into live programming, following the announcement that Chris Rock would become the first figure to perform live on the streamer with his new stand-up special, which will air in March. While the SAG Awards saw a surge in viewership last year, following the all-time low of 2021 amid a shortened, pre-recorded ceremony, the move could potentially boost such numbers as more resort to cord-cutting.
