The veteran American actor, Robert Downey Jr., aged 58, has reached a significant milestone in his illustrious career by clinching his inaugural Oscar award. This esteemed accolade was bestowed upon him for his compelling portrayal of Lewis Strauss, the nemesis of J. Robert Oppenheimer, in Christopher Nolan’s film, Oppenheimer.
The 96th Academy Awards unfolded recently at the esteemed Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, with Jimmy Kimmel returning as the host. Amidst the opulence and splendor, Robert Downey Jr. was crowned Best Supporting Actor for his outstanding performance in Oppenheimer. Stepping onto the stage, he graciously accepted the award, delivering a heartfelt acceptance speech.
In his address, he humorously quipped, “I’d like to thank my terrible childhood and the Academy, in that order.” With warmth, he acknowledged his wife Susan, jesting, “I’d like to thank my veterinarian – I meant wife – Susan Downey over there. She found me, a snarling rescue pet, and loved me back to life. That’s why I am here. Thank you.”
Gratitude extended to the entire cast and crew of Oppenheimer, with a candid revelation, “Here’s my little secret. I needed this job more than it needed me. Chris knew it.” With his trophy in hand, he made his way down to the floor, offering a heartfelt shout-out to his three children.
Robert’s triumph at the Oscars adds to his impressive haul, having also clinched the Golden Globe Award and Critics’ Choice Award for the same role. This win marks a poignant moment in his career, securing victory in three Oscar nominations spanning over three decades. We at 123telugu extend our heartfelt congratulations to him.
