The 96th Academy Award just announced the Best Actress in a Leading Role Award. The nominees in the category for Oscars 2024 were Emma Stone for Poor Things, Annette Bening for Nyad, Carey Mulligan for Maestro, Lily Gladstone for Killers of the Flower Moon, and Sandra Huller for Anatomy of a Fall.
Emma Stone won the Best Actress in a Leading Role Oscar award. The actress looked drop-dead gorgeous in Louis Vuitton’s custom-made mint peplum gown. This is Emma’s second Academy Award after winning her first one in 2017 for La La Land. Poor Things, directed by Yorgos Lanthimos, also stars Mark Ruffalo, Willem Dafoe, Margaret Qualley, Ramy Youssef and others.
Emma Stone in her Academy Award-winning speech, said, “Oh boy, my dress is broken. I think it happened during ‘I’m Just Ken.’ I’m pretty sure. Oh boy, this is really overwhelming. And my voice is also a little gone. All the women on the stage, were incredible. And the women in this category, Sandra, Annette, Carey, Lily, I share this with you; I am in awe of you.”
The Poor Things star added, “I was panicking as you can kind of see, it happens a lot, that maybe something like this could happen. And Yorgos said to me, please take yourself out of it, and he was right because it’s not about me. It’s about a team that came together to make something greater than the sum of its parts, and that is the best part about making movies: It’s all of us, together. And I am so deeply honoured to share this with every cast member, with every crew member, with every single person who poured their love and their care and their brilliance into the making of this film.”
