Marion Cotillard is Harvard's Hasty Pudding Woman of the Year

Marion Cotillard has been announced as Harvard's Hasty Pudding Theatrical Woman of the Year.

The Oscar winner will receive a salute at Harvard on January 31 with a parade in her honour, the Hasty Pudding organisation has announced.



Cotillard will also be the subject of a comedy roast, where she will be given Harvard's infamous pudding pot.

Homeland actress Claire Danes was the recipient of the Hasty Pudding Theatrical Woman of the Year in 2012, with previous winners including Julianne Moore, Anne Hathaway and Halle Berry.

The original award was handed out to stage legend Gertrude Lawrence in 1951.
