Streaming tip: Kevin Costner will be honored live with the BAMBI today

If you fancy some entertainment tonight: 
Prime Video will broadcast 
BAMBI 2024 live on November 7th from 8:15 p.m.

Hollywood legend Kevin Costner will be honored with the “International Actor” award at this year’s BAMBI awards. The jury praised him as a charismatic hero who embodies the American dream and lives it himself. Whether in the political drama JFK – Crime Scene Dallas , as a bodyguard in Bodyguard or in the award-winning western Dances with Wolves – Kevin Costner has already played several iconic roles.

His latest work, the ambitious four-part Horizon saga, builds on his passion for the Western and is one of his most ambitious projects. The BAMBI 2024 comes at a good time for Costner, as the first film received a mixed reception in the USA. The BAMBI recognition should therefore bring him welcome appreciation and recognition in Europe for his dedication and perseverance. And perhaps some welcome advertising for Horizon – Chapter 2 .

The BAMBI, one of the oldest and most prestigious media awards in Germany, has been honoring people and projects that move the public since 1948. The award is characterized by the fact that it not only addresses the industry, but consciously takes up the sympathy and enthusiasm of the public. And Kevin Costner is certainly a good representative of this.

For the first time this year, the BAMBI will be broadcast live on Prime Video . The red carpet stretches over a huge 4,200 square meters, enough space for promotions for around 1,000 invited guests. One of the highlights of the evening will be the performance by Robbie Williams , who will be honored for his achievements in the “Entertainment” category and will open the ceremony with an exclusive song from his upcoming (arguably rather unconventional) film Better Man .

Amazon is probably curious to see whether streaming such events will be accepted. Is that a reason for you to switch on Prime Video or are such events of little interest to you?
