A gala at the Academy Museum will honor Colman Domingo, Charlize Theron, and filmmaker John Carpenter this fall. Established in its sixth year, the red carpet event has become a star-studded and glamorous affair, rivaling New York's Met Gala. The museum's director, Amy Homma, praised the honorees' "extraordinary careers" and expressed excitement for their involvement.
Notable figures from the music and film industry, including Questlove, Judd Apatow, Teyana Taylor, Ludwig Göransson, Seth Rogen, Demi Moore, Robert Rodriguez, Steven Spielberg, and Kate Capshaw, will contribute to the event. Theron and Carpenter will participate in public programs, such as a conversation with the museum's teen council and a screening of "Mad Max: Fury Road" for Theron, and a series of screenings of Carpenter's films, including "Halloween," for Carpenter.
Last year's gala, honoring Bruce Springsteen, Penélope Cruz, Bowen Yang, and Walter Salles, raised over $12 million.
