In 2019, Iñárritu served as the first Latin American president of the jury for the 72nd Cannes Film Festival.
In 2015, Iñárritu was awarded the Academy Award for Best Director for Birdman (2014) and a year later received the same award for The Revenant (2015), making him the third director to win the award back-to-back, following in the footsteps of John Ford and Joseph L. Mankiewicz. To date, he is the only director in history to have won the DGA Award for Outstanding Directing two years in a row.
Iñárritu was later awarded a Special Achievement Academy Award for his virtual reality installation Carne y Arena (2017), the first ever VR installation to be presented at the Cannes Film Festival.
