Spielberg will have to wait

The Cecil B. DeMille Award will be awarded to the director in 2009.

January 8, 2008

Here's one award that won't be handed out Sunday at the event formerly known as the Golden Globes: The Hollywood Foreign Press Assn. has decided not to present the Cecil B. DeMille Award to Steven Spielberg during this strike-marred awards season, as it had originally planned. Instead, as first reported by Variety, it will be given to Spielberg at the 2009 ceremony. So here's hoping the strike will be over by then.
