Hollywood star Tom Cruise, choreographer Debbie Allen and “Do The Right Thing” production designer Wynn Thomas have been selected to receive honorary Oscar statuettes at the annual Governors Awards. This is 35 years after Tom Cruise received his first Oscar nomination.

 

“This year's Governors Awards will celebrate four legendary individuals whose extraordinary careers and commitment to our filmmaking community continue to leave a lasting impact,” Academy President Janet Yang said in a statement.

 

Most recipients of the prize historically have not yet won a competitive Oscar themselves. Cruise, 62, has been nominated four times, twice for best actor in “Born on the Fourth of July” and “Jerry Maguire”, once for supporting actor in “Magnolia” and once for best picture with “Top Gun: Maverick”.

 

Yang spotlighted Cruise's “incredible commitment to our filmmaking community, to the theatrical experience, and to the stunts community”.

 

The awards will be handed out during an untelevised ceremony on November 16 at the Ray Dolby Ballroom in Los Angeles. Last year's recipients included the late Quincy Jones, Bond producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson, filmmaker Richard Curtis and casting director Juliet Taylor.

 

Recipients of the prizes, which honour lifetime achievement, contributions to the state of motion picture arts and sciences and service to the academy, are selected by the film academy's board of governors.
