It’s a tie! In our latest and final AFI poll results, actors Tom Cruise and Denzel Washington are your top choices to receive a life achievement award from the American Film Institute. Both men received 22% of support in our poll about male actors and directors over the past week. Our results are certainly not binding, and the AFI will officially announce its actual selection in the next few days.
Actor and director George Clooney was honored a few months ago, so it might not even be a man for the 47th annual event in the summer of 2019. We also hosted a recent poll about actresses, with Sigourney Weaver defeating Glenn Close and eight others as your favorite.
