In addition to being the most-awarded actress in SAG Awards and Emmys history, Julia Louis-Dreyfus stands as the only woman who has received back-to-back Best Comedy Actress prizes from both organizations for a single series. She achieved this feat by nabbing individual SAG Awards trophies for “Veep” in 2017 and 2018 after collecting six Emmys in a row for the political sitcom. Now, all signs point to her being joined in this regard by “Hacks” star Jean Smart, whose role on the HBO Max show is the 12th to inspire consecutive Best Comedy Actress Emmy wins and could become the seventh on the corresponding SAG list.
As it stands, Louis-Dreyfus is both the first and last member of the acting guild’s back-to-back Best Comedy Actress winners club, since she was first honored in 1997 and 1998 for “Seinfeld.” She was then followed by a pair of three-time consecutive champs: Megan Mullally and Tina Fey.
