Leonardo DiCaprio—Actor in a Leading Role
“Making this film was one of the most meaningful and collaborative experiences of my life,” Leo wrote in a statement. “It was made possible by the generosity, courage, and talent of an extraordinary cast—Teyana [Taylor], Chase [Infiniti], Benny [del Toro], Sean [Penn], Regina [Hall]—and by the commitment of our entire crew.”
“None of this would have been possible without Paul [Thomas Anderson]‘s vision, dedication, and belief in this film,” Leo continued. “He brought to life a complex story that feels deeply relevant to the world we’re living in, and I’m honored the Academy has recognized it in this moment.”
“Congratulations to my fellow nominees for their remarkable work this season,” Leo concluded, “and thank you again to the Academy.”
