AARP Movies for Grownups Awards Announces 2025 Show Date, Alan Cumming to Return as Host


AARP The Magazine announced today that the annual Movies for Grownups Awards will be held in person in Beverly Hills on Saturday, January 11, 2025 with Tony and Emmy-winning actor Alan Cumming returning as host.

The Career Achievement Honoree, an award which has previously gone to Jamie Lee Curtis, George Clooney, Helen Mirren, Michael Douglas, Shirley MacLaine, Morgan Freeman, Kevin Costner, Susan Sarandon, Robert Redford, Sharon Stone and Robert De Niro, will be announced at a later date as will the Movies for Grownups nominees.

Last season saw Killers of the Flower Moon taking the top honor for Best Picture/Best Movie for Grownups with star Robert De Niro named Best Supporting Actor while the duo of Annette Bening and Jodie Foster won Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress for Nyad.

AARP Movies for Grownups launched in 2002 to help fight ageism in the entertainment industry by encouraging films that resonate with older audiences and highlighting the best films & performances of the year. MFG films spotlight actors, directors, and writers aged 50-plus who create stories that showcase grownup experiences with a wide range of interests and tastes, but always selected with the grownup audience in mind.

In 2012, Movies for Grownups launched a nationwide screening program for AARP members and friends giving them the opportunity to gather as a community for free in person movie screenings. In 2020, Movies for Grownups expanded, adding free virtual movie screenings, including a real-time chat feature creating a sense of community among the viewing audience. Movies for Grownups films include pre-releases, new releases, fascinating documentaries, and fan-favorite classic films.
