The actor will next be seen hosting TBS and Cartoon Network's Harry Potter game show, 'Hogwarts Tournament of Houses', premiering Sunday, November 28.

On the film side, she recently finished filming Warner Bros.' 'Shazam!' sequel, 'Fury of the Gods', and is currently filming 'Golda', in which she is playing the title role of former Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir.

In a statement, Mirren said in part, "Since I was a young actor starting out, I have always been inspired by and learned from American screen acting, so this award is particularly meaningful for me."

Mirren is also the first recipient of this honour since the 2020 SAG Awards as the 2021 virtual show went without a Life Achievement honoree amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

As per The Hollywood Reporter, SAG-AFTRA President Fran Drescher said, "Dame Helen Mirren is quite simply a brilliant and luminous talent. Her work runs the gamut of characters from a not-so-retired CIA super-killer and a ruthless Russian spy handler to a Hungarian cleaning lady and the most exquisite Elizabeth II. She has set the bar very high for all actors and, in role after role, she exceeds even her own extraordinary performances. I've always felt a kinship with Helen."

"She's the Queen of England and I'm the Queen of Queens. She won an Oscar and I'm left-hander of the year. It's uncanny. And, it is my deep, personal honour to be the first to congratulate Helen as the 57th recipient of the Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award. Bravo, my dear!" Drescher added. (ANI)
