During the Festival’s opening ceremony, the jury will present three-time Academy Award winner Meryl Streep with an honorary Palme d’Or.
In a statement Meryl shared with The Hollywood Reporter, she wrote: ‘I am immeasurably honored to receive the news of this prestigious award.
‘To win a prize at Cannes, for the international community of artists, has always represented the highest achievement in the art of filmmaking.
‘To stand in the shadow of those who have previously been honored is humbling and thrilling in equal part. I so look forward to coming to France to thank everyone in person this May!’
In a joint statement, Cannes festival heads Iris Knobloch and Thierry Frémaux wrote: ‘We all have something in us of Meryl Streep!
‘We all have something in us of Kramer vs. Kramer, Sophie’s Choice, Out of Africa, The Bridges of Madison County, The Devil Wears Prada and Mamma Mia!
‘Because she has spanned almost 50 years of cinema and embodied countless masterpieces, Meryl Streep is part of our collective imagination, our shared love of cinema.’
Past winners of the Palme d’Or include Jane Fonda, Forest Whitaker, and Jodie Foster.
