, March 11 -- Cillian Murphy was named best actor for his performance in Oppenheimer, beating out Paul Giamatti (Holdovers) and Jeffrey Wright (American Fiction), with Robert Downey Jr earning the Best Supporting Actor for his role in Oppenheimer, beating Robert De Niro and Ryan Gosling.

Murphy, winning his first Oscar from his first nomination, is also the first ever Irish-born winner in his category. "I'm a little overwhelmed," he said before dedicating his award "to the peacemakers everywhere".

Seven years after winning for La La Land, Emma Stone earned her second Best Actress Oscar for Poor Things. Stone's win was one of four victories for Poor Things, which also earned statuettes in several technical categories.
