Tom Hanks, a two-time SAG Award winner and who worked with Alda in 2015’s “Bridge of Spies,” will present the award, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Alda’s recent projects, another with Tom Hanks in the upcoming “Mister Rogers” and in Disney’s live-action “Pinocchio,” won’t top his career-making turn as the affable Hawkeye in “MASH,” which ran for years on network television and garnered dozens of awards.
