Diane Keaton lands Sherry Lansing Leadership Award

Actress Diane Keaton is set to be honoured with the prestigious Sherry Lansing Leadership Award during a special film gala next month.

The Annie Hall icon will be feted at The Hollywood Reporter's 21st Annual Women in Entertainment Breakfast in Los Angeles on 5 December for her work as a pioneer, mentor, and philanthropist.

Director Janice Min says, "For four decades, Diane Keaton has shown women how far we can go and how deeply we can affect change. She is a brilliant actress and a role model for women across generations."

The publication's Top 100 Most Powerful Women in Entertainment will also be celebrated at the event.

Keaton joins a long list of previous prize recipients, including Helen Mirren, Meryl Streep and Glenn Close.
