Steve Martin was awarded an honorary Oscar for his years in the film industry. He, along with Angela Lansbury, Angelina Jolie and costume designer Piero Tosi received awards at the fifth annual Academy Governors Awards ceremony on Saturday. Jolie received the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award, while the remainder of the honorees received honorary Academy Awards.
Held at The Ray Dolby Ballroom of the Hollywood & Highland Center in Hollywood, the event awarded Martin with something he knew he would never receive.
“I just really gave up on that thought over 20 years ago,” he said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. “I really did. I just thought, “This is not really comedy’s world.” And, I never gave it another thought.”
