“I’m honored to be asked back and can’t wait to share the
evening with my fellow actors, doing what we do best...
celebrating ourselves,” Bell said in a statement Monday. The
actor, who starred in “ Nobody Wants This ” and “The Good
Place,” was the SAG Awards' first host in 2018.
The 31st annual awards ceremony, which honors outstanding
performances in film and television, will stream live on Netflix
on Feb. 23 at 8 p.m. Eastern from the Shrine Auditorium & Expo
Hall in Los Angeles. Idris Elba hosted last year's ceremony.
“Kristen Bell’s wit, warmth and charm makes her the perfect fit
for our show — a night celebrating actors and the outstanding
performances of the year," said Jon Brockett, executive producer
of the SAG Awards. "Plus, everybody wants this.“
Bell is an executive producer and stars in the Netflix comedy
series “Nobody Wants This” with Adam Brody. She's had roles in
“The People We Hate at the Wedding,” “The Woman in the House”
and “The Good Place” with Ted Danson. Her film credits include “
Queenpins," "Forgetting Sarah Marshall," and the voice of Anna
in Disney's “Frozen.”
Jane Fonda will be honored with the SAG life achievement award
during the awards ceremony.
Nominees will be announced Jan. 8.
