After the success of his 2026 hit, Project Hail Mary, there is more good news this year for Ryan Gosling.
It has just been announced that the star will be the 40th recipient of the American Cinematheque Award at a tribute to be held on Monday, November 2, 2026 at The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills.
The American Cinematheque Awards gala is an annual fundraiser for the nonprofit organization that continues its year-round programming at the Aero Theatre in Santa Monica, Los Feliz 3 Theatre in Los Feliz, and Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood.
American Cinematheque Board Chair Rick Nicita announced the selection by stating, it is with tremendous pride that the American Cinematheque recognizes Ryan Gosling as the recipient of their 40th Annual American Cinematheque Award.
Nicita says Gosling represents everything this honor stands for — an artist of extraordinary range, depth and fearless creative commitment.
He says from his early work in The Believer and Half Nelson, for which he earned an Academy Award nomination, to his breathtaking performances in Drive, Blue Valentine, La La Land, and his revelatory, scene-stealing turn in Barbie, Ryan has demonstrated a remarkable ability to inhabit characters with intelligence, vulnerability, and undeniable charisma.
The Chair says most recently, his stunning lead performance in Project Hail Mary captivated audiences around the world, proving his extraordinary ability to carry a film with grace, wit, and profound emotional power.
He says the film’s remarkable global box office success and overwhelming critical acclaim stand as a testament to Ryan’s singular star power and artistic gifts.
Nicita says what distinguishes Ryan is not simply his talent, but his unwavering dedication to meaningful, adventurous filmmaking.
He adds that Gosling consistently chooses projects that challenge audiences and inspire his fellow artists, and the American Cinematheque is honored to celebrate this truly exceptional talent.
