Jessie Buckley's remarkable awards season continues, with another major win for her role in Hamnet, at last night's Actor Awards (formerly known as the Screen Actors Guild [SAG] Awards) in Los Angeles.

The Killarney star was nominated for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role alongside Emma Stone (Bugonia), Chase Infiniti (One Battle After Another), Kate Hudson (Song Sung Blue), and Rose Byrne (If I Had Legs I'd Kick You).

Her Hamnet co-star, Paul Mescal, was nominated for Male Actor in a Supporting Role, but lost out on the night to Sean Penn, for his role in One Battle After Another.

Another big winner of the 2026 Actor Awards – recognising 'the outstanding motion picture and television performances of the past year' – was Sinners' Michael B. Jordan, with Male Actor in a Leading Role, and Cast in a Motion Picture.

The late Catherine O'Hara was also honoured with Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Comedy Series, as well as Ensemble in a Comedy Series, for her role in The Studio.

Harrison Ford, meanwhile, was recognised with the 61st Annual SAG-AFTRA Life Achievement Award.
