Hollywood Immortals: Meet the Class of 2026! Thu July 03rd, 2025

The iconic Hollywood Walk of Fame is set to welcome a new constellation of stars in 2026, with the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce announcing a diverse and celebrated Class of 2026. This prestigious group, spanning film, television, music, and live performance, includes fan favorites and industry legends like Timothée Chalamet, Demi Moore, and Miley Cyrus, who expressed that the honor "feels like a dream."

The selection committee, comprised of former Walk of Fame honorees, meticulously chose 35 individuals from hundreds of nominations, recognizing their significant contributions to entertainment. Each star on the Walk of Fame symbolizes a lasting mark on Hollywood history, a tradition that began in 1960 and now boasts over 2,700 stars.

A Dream Come True for Miley Cyrus

Pop superstar Miley Cyrus, a multi-faceted talent in music and television, shared her emotional reaction to the news. "Honored to be receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame," she wrote, reflecting on her childhood memories of visiting the famous boulevard. "When I first came to LA from Nashville as a little girl, my family would stay at a hotel on Hollywood Blvd, and and I would go on late-night walks with my dad (Billy Ray Cyrus) when no one would recognize him. We'd have the gift shops to ourselves & buy knock-off Oscars and Marilyn Monroe merchandise." She added, "To now be cemented on this legendary boulevard, surrounded by the icons who inspired me, feels like a dream. This moment will live forever, thank you to everyone in my life who made it possible. I am grateful to share this star with you."

Timothée Chalamet: One of the Youngest Honorees

At just 29 years old, Timothée Chalamet stands out as one of the youngest recipients in the Class of 2026. Chalamet has rapidly become a defining actor of his generation, earning critical acclaim and a devoted fanbase for his performances in films like Call Me by Your Name, Dune, Wonka, and his most recent role as Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown. His inclusion highlights his immense impact on contemporary cinema at a relatively early stage in his career, an honor typically bestowed upon artists later in their professional journey.

Demi Moore: Acknowledging a Storied Career

Veteran actress Demi Moore, known for her iconic roles in films such as Ghost, A Few Good Men, and Indecent Proposal, will also be immortalized on the Walk of Fame.
