Chris Pine named CinemaCon ‘Male Star of the Year’

Chris Pine is being given the ‘Male Star of the Year’ award at the convention that gathers 5,000 movie industry professionals.

CinemaCon Managing Director Mitch Neuhauser said 

“Chris Pine has emerged as one of Hollywood’s hottest and most accomplished young actors and CinemaCon is thrilled to honor him as its 2013 ‘Male Star of the Year.’”

“With this summer’s Star Trek Into Darkness, the eagerly anticipated follow-up to 2009’s Star Trek, and then at year-end, the release of Jack Ryan, without a doubt 2013 is going to be Chris Pine’s year,” Neuhauser said.
