From Scranton, Penn., all the way to Washington, D.C., as well as Virginia, Germany, and Morocco, it’s the 2026 Actor Awards.
Entertainment Weekly can exclusively reveal that the Screen Actors Guild’s annual celebration of the year’s best performances, formerly known as the SAG Awards, will include reunions for two beloved TV shows: Homeland and The Office.
The globe-trotting political thriller’s star, Claire Danes, will join forces with her old parter in crime-fighting, Damian Lewis, to present one of the evening’s awards. Danes is a past Screen Actors Guild Award winner for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Drama Series.
Jenna Fischer, Mindy Kaling, Angela Kinsey, and Ellie Kemper, meanwhile, will represent the contingent from the beloved workplace comedy set in small-town America. The Office cast took home the prize for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series in both 2007 and 2008.
Kemper also added two nominations to her résumé for her work on The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.

Danes and Lewis recently shared a smiley Homeland reunion. The My So Called Life alum attended the premiere of Lewis’ British espionage thriller series A Spy Among Friends in 2023 to support her old on-screen flame. The two shared an intense love connection on Homeland season 3, before his unhinged Marine Sgt. Nicholas Brody met his untimely demise.
“It’s been 20 years since I first met these beautiful women!” Kaling wrote in the caption of the post to her social media. “This year was a rollercoaster to say the least, and it’s so nice to be able to unpack life’s joys and challenges with people who knew me when I was a 24 year old customer service rep in the Scranton branch of Dunder Mifflin. I love you guys!”
Kristen Bell will serve as the host this year’s Actor Awards, where Harrison Ford will be presented with the illustrious SAG-AFTRA Life Achievement Award. Past awards have gone to Jane Fonda, Barbra Streisand, and Robert Redford, who died at the age of 89 in September.
