The two will receive the BFI's highest honor the same year as the James Bond celebrates its 60th anniversary.
The Rhythm Section, the upcoming American biographical drama film co-written and directed by Chinonye Chukwu and starring Whoopi Goldberg and Danielle Deadwyler.
Behind the scenes, they’ve both been advocates for the film industry, particular around education and skills. Broccoli is vice president for film at BAFTA, president of the National Youth Theatre, director of Time’s Up UK and a Trustee of Into Film, a film education charity working with young people aged 5-19. Wilson is honorary vice president of the Science Museum Foundation and a fellow of the Science Museum London.
“I am honoured and excited to be awarding Michael G Wilson and Barbara Broccoli with the prestigious BFI Fellowship,” said BFI chair Richards. “I can think of no-one else more deserving particularly as we celebrate the 60th anniversary of the incredibly successfulfranchise. With amazing insight and vision Michael and Barbara have not only re-invented Bond for today’s audiences, butarrived at exactly the right moment to welcome those audiences back to the big screen experience as never before.
In 2008, Michael and Barbara were appointed Officers of the Order of the British Empire and in 2014 they were honoured by the Producers Guild of America with the David O. Selznick Achievement Award in Theatrical Motion Pictures. In 2022, they were appointed Commanders of the Order of the British Empire for services to film, drama, philanthropy and skills .
The two joins an growing list of BFI Fellows that also includes Martin Scorsese and Thelma Schoonmaker, Tilda Swinton, David Lean, Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger, Nicholas Roeg, Orson Welles, Ridley Scott, Judi Dench, Ousmane Sembène, Bernardo Bertolucci and Steve McQueen.
