Career Achievement Award
- Helen Mirren: "Clearly the prime suspect for an award honoring an actress whose success grows with age: Ninety-three percent of her movies' $1.5 billion total earnings arrived after she turned 50, along with most of her top acting honors, including an Oscar for The Queen."[6]
