Two-time Academy Award nominee and Tony Award winning actor Andrew Garfield will present Belfast star Jamie Dornan with an Oscar Wilde Award at the US-Ireland Alliance's annual Oscar Wilde Awards.
The event will be held on 24 March at the Ebell of Los Angeles.
Trina Vargo, president of the US-Ireland Alliance said, "Jamie and Andrew are old friends, going back to when they were just starting out as young actors in Los Angeles. We hope, and Jamie probably fears, that Andrew has some good stories."
Garfield currently stars in Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Tick, Tick,… Boom!, a movie musical adaption of the autobiographical Off-Broadway show written by Rent composer Jonathan Larson.
For his work in the film, Garfield has been nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor. He recently won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor and is nominated for upcoming Critics’ Choice and Screen Actors Guild Awards.
Garfield recently reprised his role as Peter Parker alongside Tom Holland and Tobey Maguire in Spider-Man: No Way Home, which quickly became one of the highest-grossing films of all-time, grossing over 1.7 billion dollars worldwide.
Also being honoured at the Oscar Wilde Awards this year are Kenneth Branagh, Adam McKay, and up and coming Irish actor Dónall Ó Héalai. Caitriona Balfe, a previous recipient of an Oscar Wilde Award, will present to Ó Héalai. J.J. Abrams will emcee.
Irish performers Loah & Bantum, and Cork band True Tides will perform on the night.
