A celebrated figure in the film industry for more than 40 years, Costner is being recognised for his outstanding commitment to the art of storytelling through the authentic and evocative use of real-world locations. His filmography, which spans a wide range of genres and eras, is a testament to his ability to seamlessly integrate setting as a vital element of narrative. Whether in the sweeping plains of 'Dances with Wolves', the nostalgic landscapes of 'Field of Dreams', or the rugged beauty of 'Yellowstone' and his latest project, "Horizon: An American Saga', Costner consistently demonstrates the emotional power of place in film and television. 'Kevin Costner has long understood that locations are more than scenery - they are storytelling tools that shape the emotional and visual language of a film,' said LMGI President John Rakich in an official statement. 'His commitment to authenticity and his deep respect for the craft make him a perfect recipient of the Eva Monley Award. We're honoured to celebrate his legacy and his ongoing contributions to the art of filmmaking.'

He broke into the spotlight with standout performances in films such as 'The Untouchables', 'Bull Durham', 'Silverado", 'Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves", 'JFK', 'No Way Out" and 'A Perfect World'. Beyond acting, he has also made his mark behind the camera - producing and starring in 'Wyatt Earp' and 'Waterworld' and directing 'The Postman' and "Open Range'. The Eva Monley Award - named in honour of the legendary location manager who worked alongside the likes of David Lean, John Huston and Steven Spielberg - celebrates individuals who have made exceptional contributions to filmmaking by elevating the role of locations in storytelling. Past recipients of the award include Martin Scorsese, Steven Spielberg, Wes Anderson and Danny Boyle.

Kevin Costner on his retirement plans: ‘I don't even think about…'
Kevin Costner, 70, is showing no signs of slowing down. He is already looking ahead to his next creative endeavor. In a recent interview with People, the Yellowstone star made it clear that retirement isn't on his radar. 'I don't even think about retiring, because I'll just move to the next thing that captures my imagination,' Costner said. The veteran actor and filmmaker emphasized that his decisions aren't dictated by others. 'Imagination is what determines what I do, not a boss. I think we're all different and we have different things happening for us,' he explained. Reflecting on his career, Costner acknowledged a mix of fortune and effort. 'I've felt really lucky in my life. I'd like to think that I worked for all of it, but not everybody can live by the same blueprint.' Kevin Costner's career, spanning over four decades, has been marked by iconic roles and bold directorial ventures. He rose to stardom in the late 1980s with hits like The Untouchables and Bull Durham, but it was Dances with Wolves, which he directed and starred in, that won him two Academy Awards and cemented his legacy. In recent years, Costner has captivated audiences with his role as John Dutton in the hit series Yellowstone. Costner shows no signs of slowing down. He recently launched his passion project, Horizon: An American Saga, a multi-part Western epic he directs and stars in.

Costner later married Christine Baumgartner, with whom he has three children: Cayden, Hayes and Grace. The couple divorced in 2024. In a June 2024 interview with People magazine, Kevin Costner revealed that Yellowstone was originally pitched as a one-season project. While he expressed deep appreciation for his time on the show, he ultimately stepped away because the filming schedule became too demanding and interfered with other creative pursuits. No, Kevin Costner has no plans to retire. He says imagination drives his next steps, not deadlines or expectations. Costner is currently focused on Horizon: An American Saga, a multi-part Western film series. Kevin Costner has seven children: three with his first wife, Cindy Silva, one with Bridget Rooney, and three with his ex-wife, Christine Baumgartner.

Eamonn Holmes issues new health update after an accident
The 65-year-old TV presenter jokingly told fans that he'd been 'prescribed' a day of watching movies to recover Eamonn Holmes has opened up about his muscle 'flare-up' after suffering a fall over the bank holiday weekend. The 65-year-old joked that he'd been 'prescribed a day of watching Westerns' to recover and took to Instagram to share an update. Sharing a picture of himself in a cowboy-esque hat, Eamonn said: "Howday Pilgrims ….. My Head and Neck muscles having a flare up since my fall. Been prescribed a day of watching Westerns to help recuperate. "On my list, Russell Crowe in The 3.10 from Yuma, John Wayne in Red River, and Kevin Costner in Dances with Wolves. It's medicine - honestly! … feeling better already - Ouch !!!" Unsurprisingly, the post was met with numerous comments from fans offering their well-wishes and support. One wrote: "All Western films are good. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Enjoy!!", while someone else added: "Feel better soon, Eamonn. Enjoy your Westerns." Another user said: "Rest and get well soon. Hat is amazing." In a separate update, Eamonn expressed his gratitude to everyone who looked out for him but admitted it was far from an ideal bank holiday weekend. He wrote six days ago: "Not how I wanted to be spending The Holiday weekend …… but life's not easy these days. Thanks to everybody who is looking after me." Eamonn has faced several health challenges in recent years, including an acute pain which led him to undergo a double-hip replacement in 2016. In 2021, he also suffered chronic back pain completely out of nowhere, only to discover he had three slipped discs. Despite undergoing back surgery in 2023, he was left in need of a wheelchair and mobility aids. Opening up about his health on GB News at the time, he reportedly said: "I can't run, I can't walk, I can't do anything except watch TV and eat...I just got problems last year in my back, which I haven't recovered from. It's not good, it's not a good recipe I have to say." Eamonn separated from his wife and former This Morning co-star, Ruth Langsford, last year after being married for 14 years. Ruth herself has also faced several hardships in the past year. In December, her 94-year-old mother fractured her pelvis less than a year after breaking her hip. The family was relieved to learn that Joan wouldn't need surgery, but she did have to spend some time in the hospital recovering. Fortunately, Joan was well enough to return home by January, joining Ruth and her dog, Maggie. "Mum soaking up this gorgeous sunshine and rocking my sunglasses and padded gilet from @qvcuk," Ruth said, posting to Instagram in March. "Thank you for all your kind enquires about her…. she's recovering brilliantly after fracturing her pelvis in December... "Charging around again on her walker like a good 'un! Hope I'll have her grit and energy when I'm 94! LEGEND."

He posted a selfie to his Instagram wearing a black cowboy hat and gave fans an update. "Howdy Pilgrims ….. My Head and Neck muscles having a flare up since my fall.

"He was very lucky." The TV star - who is often seen out in a wheelchair or on crutches - has struggled with his mobility for the last few years as he battles intense back pain. His chronic condition began unexpectedly in 2021 and soon he was unable to walk without a stick to help him.

June 2010 - Eamonn and Ruth marry at Elvetham Hall, Hampshire. 2016 - Eamonn undergoes a double hip replacement in the first of many health battles. June 2019 - On This Morning, Ruth and Eamonn say the secret to their happy marriage.

November 2020 - Ruth and Eamonn are replaced on their regular Friday slot by Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary in a 'show shake-up'. December 2021 - After a year of being moved to the bank holiday presenting slot, both Eamonn and Ruth left This Morning. January 2022 - Eamonn debuted on GB News, while Ruth stayed with ITV in her long-standing role on Loose Women. September 2022 - Eamonn undergoes spinal surgery after years of back issues including a trapped sciatic nerve. November 2022 - Eamonn falls down the stairs of his Surrey home with Ruth and breaks his shoulder, requiring a new operation. September 2023 - Eamonn has a spine and neck stretching procedure as part of his year-long recovery.

September 2024 - Eamonn was spotted on a luxury holiday in Barcelona with his new girlfriend Katie Alexander. Ruth calls in a 'fierce' divorce lawyer. The pain was caused by a dislocated pelvis, which later resulted in him sustaining three slipped disks. While recovering from surgery, he fell down the stairs at his home in Weybridge and broke his shoulder. A further spine and neck procedure in 2023 did little to alleviate Eamonn's pain. He has admitted the pain has led to him having countless "sleepless nights" and caused rows with his estranged wife Ruth Langsford over how much medication he relies on taking. Eamonn and Ruth announced their split in May last year having started dating in 1991.
