Actor Michael Keaton has been honored as the 2026 Man of the Year by Harvard University’s Hasty Pudding Theatricals. Keaton received his Pudding Pot award at a celebratory roast Friday. Afterward he attended a performance of Hasty Pudding's 177th production, “Salooney Tunes.” Hasty Pudding Theatricals dates to 1844 and calls itself the third-oldest theater group in existence. It gives out its Man and Woman of the Year awards to people who have made lasting and impressive contributions to the world of entertainment. Keaton is known for his roles in films such as “Batman,” “Birdman,” “Beetlejuice” and “Spotlight.” Actor Jon Hamm won the award last year.
