Yerin Ha has been named Ambassador for The 32nd Annual Actor Awards Presented by SAG-AFTRA, which will stream live on Netflix, on Sunday, March 1, 2026 at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT from the Shrine Auditorium & Expo Hall.
The Actor Awards selected Ha as this year’s Ambassador for exemplifying the utmost values of the acting profession, serving as a positive role model for the next generation of performers and actively using her platform to advocate for humanitarian and public service endeavors. As The Actor Awards Ambassador, Ha will attend the Actors Rising event, a special evening hosted by The Actors Awards that shines a light on the next generation of actors. Ha will also provide fans with exclusive behind-the-scenes access to the awards ceremony, participate in select Actor Awards pre-show events and raise awareness for the SAG-AFTRA Foundation. Previous Ambassadors include Sofia Carson, Noah Centineo, Taylor Zakhar Perez, Yara Shahidi, Joey King, Alexandra Daddario, Ross Butler, Jurnee Smollett, Haley Lu Richardson, Phil Dunster, Logan Browning, Antonia Gentry and Harry Shum Jr.
“Being named The Actor Awards Ambassador is such an honor because this ceremony is about actors celebrating actors,” said Ha. “There is something uniquely powerful about being recognized within your own community. As someone who cares so deeply about the craft and about collaboration, it means so much to represent the next generation of actors and be part of an event that uplifts storytelling.”
Yerin Ha is a Korean-Australian actor and one of the most exciting new international talents of her generation. She stars as Sophie Baek in Bridgerton Season 4, which recently launched on Netflix. Ha’s role in the pop-culture phenomenon marks a major milestone for the series, as she becomes the first East Asian actress to lead Bridgerton. Her previous television credits include Netflix’s The Survivors, HBO’s Dune: Prophecy, and Paramount+’s Halo. On stage, Ha recently made her UK theatre debut starring in Jean Genet’s The Maids at London’s Donmar Warehouse, which follows her earlier work at the Sydney Theatre Company in Lord of the Flies — underscoring her range across screen and stage.
Award-winning actress and producer Kristen Bell will host The 32nd Annual Actor Awards Presented by SAG-AFTRA, and legendary actor and activist Harrison Ford will be presented with the Life Achievement Award, SAG-AFTRA’s highest honor.
Silent House Productions will produce the annual ceremony for the third consecutive year.
