Dec. 18 (UPI) -- Star Wars and Indiana Jones legend Harrison Ford has been named the 61st recipient of SAG-AFTRA's Life Achievement Award.
Ford, 83, will be presented with the honor at the Actor Awards, streaming live from Hollywood's Shrine Auditorium & Expo Hall on Netflix March 1.
"Harrison Ford is a singular presence in American life; an actor whose iconic characters have shaped world culture," SAG-AFTRA President Sean Astin said in a press release Thursday.
"His career has been endlessly exciting, always returning to his love of acting. We are honored to celebrate a legend whose impact on our craft is indelible."
Ford, who recently embarked on a successful TV career with starring roles in 1923 and Shrinking, is known for being a humble man of few words.
