The Oscar-winning actress will be honoured alongside Amy Adams, Cate Blanchett, Durga Chew-Bose, David Cronenberg, Clément Ducol and Camille, Jharrel Jerome, Mike Leigh, and Zhao Tao with Sandra Oh at a Sept. 8 gala at the Fairmont Royal York Hotel.

Presented by philanthropist Anne-Marie Canning, the award recognizes leadership in creating a union between social impact and cinema.

“Angelina Jolie is a multi-faceted talent who has entertained audiences for decades while consistently using her platform to champion important causes,” TIFF CEO Cameron Bailey said in a statement. “This award recognizes her exceptional achievements in filmmaking, and her unwavering commitment for positive change, solidifying her status as a veritable humanitarian and global force to be reckoned with.”

Jolie’s latest project, war drama Without Blood, is also set to have its world premiere at TIFF on Sept. 8.

Adapted from Alessandro Baricco’s novel of the same name, the war drama, starring Salma Hayek Pinault and Demián Bichir, follows a young girl seeking revenge for the murders of her father and brother.

The 49th edition of the Toronto International Film Festival runs from Sept. 5 to 15.
