The Rock To Receive 2026 Disney Legends Award
Disney is honoring The Rock.
Disney announced that The Rock will receive a 2026 Disney Legend Award for his contributions to Disney over the years. The Rock has famously starred in “Moana,” “Moana 2,” “Jungle Cruise,” “Race to Witch Mountain,” and more.
The 2026 Disney Legends Award honorees represent the extraordinary breadth of talent and storytellers who have defined Disney across entertainment, storytelling, and experiences for generations. From performance and animation, to music and sports, to leadership and Imagineering, these honorees have shaped how audiences around the world connect with Disney stories.
During his two decades at the helm of The Walt Disney Company, former Chairman and CEO Bob Iger led Disney to unprecedented creative and business success, building on Disney’s rich history of unforgettable storytelling and serving as steward of the world’s most respected and beloved brands. Susan Egan, Dwayne Johnson, Anne Hathaway, and Alan Tudyk brought unforgettable characters to life on-screen and on-stage, lending their voices, performances, and star power to films, series, and musical moments that have become part of the cultural fabric. From the Jonas Brothers shaping a generation of Disney music to Lin‑Manuel Miranda‘s groundbreaking songwriting for modern Disney favorites, alongside Eric Goldberg‘s artistry and animation that brought beloved characters to life, these contributions have continually pushed Disney storytelling forward with innovation and heart.
