Weeks after she was announced as host, Bell was also nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy.

“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,“ SAG Awards executive producer Jon Brockett said of Bell’s hosting gig in a December 2024 Netflix statement. “Plus — who better to keep us entertained and on our toes than Kristen?”
