The 81-year-old Ford has earned three Golden Globe nominations, and one Oscar nom for best actor for his work in Peter Weir’s drama “Witness” (1985). He has also been honored for his contributions to the film industry, including the BAFTA’s Albert R. Broccoli Britannia Award and the American Film Institute’s Lifetime Achievement Award. At last year’s Cannes Film Festival, he was bestowed with the honorary Palme d’Or when “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” premiered.

Ford currently stars in the Apple TV+ comedy series “Shrinking,” for which he’s nominated for supporting comedy actor at this year’s CCA ceremony. He also stars opposite Helen Mirren in the Western period drama series “1923” from Paramount+.

The 29th annual Critics Choice Awards will air live on The CW at 7 p.m. ET.
