Helen Mirren will receive the SAG Life Achievement Award at the SAGAwards on Sunday evening
is the perfect choice for the SAG Life Achievement Award, that rare performer respected and awarded for their work but also beloved by audiences. Able to effortlessly move between Shakespeare and Hollywood spectacle, Mirren joined the “Fast & Furious” franchise with 2017’s “The Fate of the Furious.” Fans loved that she was perfectly cast as the mother of Jason Statham’s Deckard and Luke Evans’ Owen.
Though Mirren notes she doesn’t feel like a “foreigner” in the States, pointing out that her husband, Taylor Hackford, and stepchildren are American and she lives in the U.S. on and off throughout the year. In fact, a few years ago, Mirren became an American citizen. “It was a big moment in my life,” she notes. “I don’t know why I hadn’t done it before, I think I hadn’t fully grasped that I could have dual citizenship.
Jim Broadbent stars as Bunton while Mirren portrays Dorothy, his devoted wife who is kept in the dark about his scheme. Mirren says she wasn’t familiar with the story, even though it happened in her lifetime. “I was completely unaware of it. I mean, I guess I was a teenager and I don’t know many teens who read the paper. So when it came to me, I couldn’t believe it was real, it just seemed so extraordinary.
Other upcoming projects include “White Bird: A Wonder Story,” adapted from R.J. Palacio’s book that focuses on Julian, the school bully in her previous novel “Wonder.” Mirren will play Julian’s grandmother, who tells him stories about escaping the Nazis in her youth. She has also filmed “Golda,” in which she portrays the Israeli prime minister during the early days of the Yom Kippur War.
