Two years after gracing the cover of Zoomer Magazine, Dame Helen Mirren is to receive the Life Achievement Award from the Screen Actors Guild in February.
Recipients are selected by their work in fostering the ”finest ideals of the acting profession,” including both career achievement and humanitarian accomplishment.
”Dame Helen Mirren is quite simply a brilliant and luminous talent,” said SAG president Fran Drescher.
”She had set the bar very high for all actors and, in role after role, she exceeds even her own extraordinary performances.”
Past honorees include Robert DeNiro, Alan Alda, Morgan Freeman, Lily Tomlin, Carole Burnett, Debbie Reynolds and Rita Moreno.
Mirren is the first British actor to receive the award since Julie Andrews in 2006.
In addition to a collection of SAG and BAFTA Awards, the 76-year-old English stage and screen actor has won an Oscar, a Tony and three Emmys.
She was also made a Dame of the British Empire in 2003.
Her philanthropic work includes Meals on Wheels and SAY: The Stuttering Association for the Young.
