Anne Hathaway is set to receive the Santa Barbara Film Festival’s 2027 American Riviera Award, with an in-person tribute and conversation scheduled for February 5. The award recognizes actors for their significant contributions to American cinema.
Both outlets report the honour will take place at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, and both link the recognition to Hathaway’s work, including her performance as Penelope in Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey.” Variety frames the announcement around the Feb. 5 event at the festival’s 42nd annual edition and includes praise for Hathaway’s approach to acting, while Deadline also highlights the award’s purpose and the format of the tribute. Neither source describes additional recipients or other awards in detail, focusing instead on Hathaway’s recognition and the event date.
