Bridges will be honoured with the Cecil B DeMille Award, an annual accolade given to a person who has made a lasting impact on the world of film.
The 69-year-old actor has been nominated for five Golden Globes and won once for his role as a faded country music star in 2009 drama Crazy Heart.
That performance also earned Bridges an Oscar. He also famously played the slacker known as "The Dude" in 1998's Big Lebowski.
His range of films over the decades include True Grit, Tron, The Fabulous Baker Boys, The Fisher King and The Last Picture Show.
The DeMille Award is named after the influential Hollywood director who spanned both the silent and sound eras of film.
Past winners have included Oprah Winfrey, George Clooney, Robert De Niro, Audrey Hepburn, Harrison Ford, and Meryl Streep.
The award will be handed out at the January 6 Golden Globes telecast in Beverly Hills, California.
Australians Nicole and Yvonne Strahovski are nominated, with Kidman receiving a best actress in a drama nod for the film Destroyer, while Strahovski is up for a supporting actress Globe for her role in TV drama The Handmaid's Tale.
