Movie icon Michelle Pfeiffer broke down in tears when in Hollywood on Friday.
The 66-year-old Scarface actress was receiving her hands and foot prints at the TCL Theater during the TCM Classic Film Festival.
Also with the Maleficent movie star were her celebrity pals Elle and Dakota Fanning, whom she has worked with on the film I Am Sam.
Michelle also starred with Elle in Maleficent: Mistress Of Evil and is now making a new series Margo’s Got Money – based on the 2024 novel by Rufi Thorpe – with her.
And by her side was her powerful producer husband David E Kelley whom she gave a loving kiss to.
Michelle looked ecstatic to be getting her prints, something Humphrey Bogart and Marilyn Monroe has done before her.
‘A total dream come true. Thank you @tcmfilmfest & @chinesetheatres and my incredible team all these years for making this honor happen,’ wrote the Oscar nominee.

Kelley – who produced Big Little Lies – had on a suit and no tie.
Pfeiffer posted a selfie in the car on the way to the ceremony: ‘On my way to my @tcmfilmfest Hand & Foot Ceremony. Honored (and a little nervous!) to be joining one of the longest and most revered traditions in Hollywood history. Hair: @richardmarin Makeup: @valli.oreilly Styling: @samanthamcmillen_stylist,’ she said.
Michelle has had a busy time in Hollywood.
The star has recently been making the family drama show Madison for Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan, which is scheduled to premiere in 2025.
Chris McCarthy, Paramount Global Co-CEO, said in a statement: ‘Michelle Pfeiffer is a remarkable talent who imbues every role with emotional depth, authenticity and grace.
‘She is the perfect anchor to the newest chapter of the ‘Yellowstone’ universe, ‘Madison’, from the brilliant mind of Taylor Sheridan.’
Production on the show is set to begin in late August, with filming to take place in Montana, New York and Texas.
Yellowstone has been a huge success since the show premiered in 2018.

But Kevin Costner – who played John Dutton – was previously forced to deny that his exit from the show was due to a falling out with Taylor Sheridan, the co-creator of ‘Yellowstone’.
Kevin, 69, told Deadline in May: ‘I have taken a beating from those f****** guys and I know a lot of times where it’s coming from.
‘I just elected not to get into that. But if you know me well enough, I made ‘Yellowstone’ the first priority, and to insinuate anything else would be wrong. I did not initiate any of those things. They did.
‘I left exactly when they wanted, and it made it hard on me. It turns out they didn’t have the scripts for 5B. They needed four more days just to complete the first eight episodes. I left early to give them what they needed to have a complete eight, and I felt bad that the audience didn’t get ten.’
Earlier this month Pfeiffer paid tribute to her former co-star and friend Val Kilmer following his death aged 65.

Michelle was animated and seemed to be having a blast
The actor, who rose to fame in the 1980s with roles in films such as ‘Top Gun’, ‘Batman Forever’ and ‘The Doors’, died from complications related to pneumonia after a long battle with health issues, with his passing announced by his daughter Mercedes.
His death sparked a flood of tributes from Hollywood greats, and now Michelle Pfeiffer, 66, has added to them by sharing a black-and-white photograph of herself and Va; from the set of the 1985 ABC Afterschool Special ‘One Too Many’.
Alongside the image, she wrote: ‘Rest in peace, Val.’
The two actors first met while filming the special, which tackled the dangers of teenage drinking, and formed a close friendship that lasted decades.
Val spoke openly about his bond with Pfeiffer in his 2020 memoir, ‘I’m Your Huckleberry’. He described the connection they shared, saying: ‘The secret pain that Michelle and I shared created an intimacy between us.’
He revealed he had felt comfortable confiding in her about his strained relationship with his parents, while Michelle, in turn, spoke to him about the difficulties in her marriage to Peter Horton, whom she later divorced.

Though Val wrote fondly about Michelle, he admitted to having harboured a longstanding attraction to her younger sister, Lori Pfeiffer, now 59.
He said in his memoir: ‘I had an all-consuming crush on her younger sister Lori, who did not seem to reciprocate, even a little,’ he wrote. ‘In fact, she seemed to not even know I existed.’
While speculation has persisted over whether Michelle and Val ever dated, the details remain unclear. However, Val reflected on their time together in a 2018 Instagram post, sharing the same image Michelle later used in her tribute.
He said online: ‘I first met Michelle through her husband Peter and Mare Winningham, who was my first girlfriend in high school.

‘It was so amazing to work with all three such talented people in one ‘after school special’ which was, to my memory, always a morality play designed to educate kids just home from school.’
Val, who was diagnosed with throat cancer in 2015, spent the later years of his life largely out of the public eye, though he made a widely praised return to the screen in 2022, reprising his role as Iceman in ‘Top Gun: Maverick’.
Michelle has not publicly commented on Val beyond her Instagram post.
Along with Mercedes, Val is survived by his son Jack, who he had during his marriage to actress Joanne Whalley.
