Jane Fonda to Receive a SAG Life Achievement Award

NBC's Jacob Soboroff sat down with the Hollywood icon to discuss her incredible six-decade career ahead of this weekend's festivities.

We're tired, and angry, and still fighting like hell, but the thing we're fighting for is the right to live safely, on a healthy planet — and that means taking time to celebrate the joyous moments that make this life so worth fighting for.

On Sunday, February 23, Jane's being honored with a SAG Life Achievement Award. We're so proud to see her life's work being honored by her peers, and for their acknowledgment of the role activism has played in Jane's wild and wonderful life.

"Jane Fonda is a trailblazer and an extraordinary talent — a dynamic force who has shaped the landscape of entertainment, advocacy and culture with unwavering passion. We honor Jane not only for her artistic brilliance but for the profound legacy of activism and empowerment she has created."

— Fran Drescher, SAG-AFTRA president

Even when the world seems most dark — maybe especially when it seems most dark — we've got to celebrate the light. Congrats, Jane.
