Ultimately, there will be no changes to the awards ceremony, which will continue to be presented by SAG-AFTRA. They emphasized: “Only the name of the show is changing.”
“The foundation remains the same,” they noted, “it’s actors honoring actors.”
So what happens to the award status of past winners, like the nine-time winner and record holder? Julia Louis-Dreyfuseight times winner Alex Baldwin And Julianna Marguilesseven times winner Allison Janney and the hundreds of other winners?
“Past winners and the public included will always refer to their award and the show as the SAG Awards, and that’s okay,” they explained. “We know it will take time to adapt to change.”
