Actor Tommy Lee Jones will co-host the Nobel Peace Prize Concert for former Vice President Al Gore his college roommate and representatives from the U.N.'s climate change panel, organizers said Tuesday.
The annual Dec. 11 concert in honor of the Nobel Peace Prize laureates draws world names in music and film as performers and is broadcast to dozens of countries.
This year's lineup includes Alicia Keys, Annie Lennox and Melissa Etheridge, who won an Academy Award this year for the song "I Need to Wake Up," which featured in Gore's environmental documentary "An Inconvenient Truth."
Jones, who has starred in movies including "The Fugitive," "Natural Born Killers," and "Men in Black," shared rooms with Gore at Harvard University. He also delivered a speech at the 2000 Democratic National Convention, when Gore was presented as the party's candidate for president.
Lee Jones' co-host will be announced later, organizers said.
The 2007 Nobel Peace Prize went to Gore and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change for their efforts to help spread awareness about man-made global warming.
