Adrien Brody won the Best Actor award at the 2025 Oscars for his role as László Tóth in 'The Brutalist', outpacing notable contenders like Ralph Fiennes and Timothée Chalamet. During his acceptance speech, Brody emphasized the award as both a career pinnacle and a fresh beginning, expressing his hope to prove worthy of significant roles in the next two decades. He acknowledged his partner Georgina Chapman and her children, reflecting on their journey. Brody's previous successes this award season heightened his win amid competitive odds, particularly with Chalamet's SAG Award win a week prior.
"Winning an award like this signifies a destination and something my character references in the film. But to me, it also... is a chance to begin again."
"I know it's been a rollercoaster. Thank you for accepting me into your life," Brody said, expressing gratitude towards his partner's children.
"This is not my first rodeo... urging Hollywood's elite to make room in their heart for acceptance."
Brody played an architect who escaped postwar Europe and came to America to rebuild his life, embodying a powerful and transformative narrative.
