Tearful Harrison Ford accepts SAG Life Achievement Award

Harrison Ford teared up while accepting the Life Achievement Award at the 2026 SAG Actor Awards, thanking his wife, Calista Flockhart, and crediting other A-listers for their support over the years. Woody Harrelson presented the prestigious honor to Ford, 83, in front of the star-studded crowd at the Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall in Los Angeles.

"I feel incredibly grateful for this kind attention, but to be clear, I’m also quite humbled," Ford began. "I’m in a room of actors, most of whom are here to receive a prize for their amazing work. While I’m here to receive a prize for being alive."

Ford went on to explain how he "was not an overnight success" and that he "struggled for about 15 years" going from acting jobs to carpentry.

"It’s a little weird to be getting a lifetime achievement award at the halfway point of my career," he joked. "It’s a little early, isn’t it? I’m still a working actor."
