Jude Law will be honored with a tribute at the 47th Mill Valley Film Festival, the California Film Institute announced. The festival is set to run from Oct. 3 through Oct. 13.
The actor will participate in an onstage conversation and presentation of the MVFF Award, which is presented to the recipients of the festival’s tributes and spotlights, special programs honoring and celebrating the work of distinguished artists and innovators in the filmmaking community.
“Jude Law’s striking performance in his new film ‘Firebrand’ is a reminder of his extraordinary career, one that defies pigeonholing with roles that are romantic and iconic, edgy and seductive, encompassing the queer, historic and fantastical,” said Zoë Elton, MVFF director of programming. “From his early work on television and stage, including a Tony-nominated performance in ‘Indiscretions,’ to acclaimed films like ‘Wilde and Gattaca,’ Law has consistently showcased his versatile talent.”
