Harrison Ford, the actor who achieved global fame through the "Indiana Jones" and "Star Wars" series, will receive the SAG-AFTRA Lifetime Achievement Award from the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA).

On December 18 (local time), SAG-AFTRA announced that Ford had been selected as this year’s recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award. The organization highly praised both his career as an actor and his humanitarian work off the screen.

The union explained, "He has captivated audiences worldwide with genre-defining performances and iconic characters, and has consistently contributed to humanitarian and environmental causes."

Ford has previously received the Critics Choice Lifetime Achievement Award (2024), the Golden Globe Cecil B. DeMille Award (2002), and the American Film Institute (AFI) Lifetime Achievement Award (2000), among others.

SAG-AFTRA President Sean Astin stated, "Ford is a unique figure in American culture," adding, "The characters he has portrayed have shaped global pop culture."
