“Patrick Stewart has captivated audiences for years,” said Tonya Mantooth, Executive and Artistic Director of the San Diego International Film Festival; “With spectacular performances, from Star Trek to his career defining performance in Logan earlier this year, as well as his Emmy and Golden Globe-nominated performance as Captain Ahab in Moby Dick, a role which Mr. Peck made famous more than forty years earlier. We couldn’t be more excited to honor him this year with the Gregory Peck Award.”
