Paul Rudd has been named the Hasty Pudding Man of the Year, Harvard University’s Hasty Pudding Theatricals announced on Thursday.

The “I Love You, Man,” actor will be honored in a ceremony on Feb. 2 where he will get his pudding pot during a roast at Harvard.

“We are incredibly excited to be honoring Mr. Rudd as our Man of the Year,” Pudding president Amira Weeks said in a statement, according to the Boston Globe. “The entire company is in awe of his many accomplishments in film and television. Specifically, in his ability to have not aged since 1995. We cannot wait for him to reveal the fountain of youth to us. Oh, and we hear he’s a pretty funny guy, too.

“He has starred in indies, mainstream films, acclaimed and often heartfelt comedies, and now he currently plays one of Marvel’s biggest (and smallest) superheroes,” the statement added, referring to Rudd’s role in “Ant-Man.”

Earlier this week, Mila Kunis was named Woman of the Year by Harvard University.

Past Man of the Year winners include Robert Downey Jr., Tom Hanks, Chris Pratt, Robert De Niro, Harrison Ford, Justin Timberlake and Ryan Reynolds.
