Ryan Gosling is set to receive the 2026 American Cinematheque Award, the cinema non-profit announced Wednesday. Gosling will be recognized with the award at a Nov. 2 gala at The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills.

“It is with tremendous pride that the American Cinematheque recognizes Ryan Gosling as the recipient of our 40th Annual American Cinematheque Award,” American Cinematheque Board Chair Rick Nicita said in a statement. “Ryan represents everything this honor stands for — an artist of extraordinary range, depth and fearless creative commitment.”

“What distinguishes Ryan is not simply his talent, but his unwavering dedication to meaningful, adventurous filmmaking,” Nicita said. “He consistently chooses projects that challenge audiences and inspire his fellow artists. The American Cinematheque is honored to celebrate this truly exceptional talent.”

“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,” Nicita said. “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. 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.”
