There are probably no happier artists in the world than actors who won an Oscar. The list of winners is replenished every year with new names. And what a sin to hide: performers from all over the world dream of being in it. Which of the men became the lucky winner of the award over the past 10 years?
Actors who received an Oscar: a list with photos for 2016
You should start with the last award ceremony, which took place in February 2016. Figurines were awarded to persons who excelled in cinema in the past year. What are the names of the actors who received the Oscar recently?
Photos from the Dolby Theater flew around the world in a matter of minutes when a historic event took place on the stage: for many years, the successful career of Leonardo DiCaprio was ignored by the jury of the Academy, but this time the actor still received a figurine. The coveted reward went to him for his stunningly played role in the drama Survivor.
This was the highlight of the event. It is symbolic that the artist received an award precisely for this project. After so many upscale projects and many nominations, Leo still achieved his goal. Truly a Hollywood Survivor.
The best supporting actor was recognized Mark Rylance. It was he who played the Soviet intelligence agent Rudolf Abel in the sensational drama Steven Spielberg's "Spy Bridge". For Mark, this was a breakthrough: despite his advanced age, he distinguished himself only by the roles of Thomas Cromwell in the Wolf Hall and Thomas Boleyn in Another Another of the Boleyn Family.
Oscar Award: actors - who received it? 2015 List
2014 was less sensational in terms of film premieres. The best leading actor was the young
Eddie Redmayne for his work in the little-known film "Theory of Everything." Eddie is a Briton who has appeared in many Hollywood hits: “Another of the Boleyn family,” “False Temptation,” “The Golden Age,” and “Les Miserables.” But the boy was not lucky with the main roles. The biographical melodrama "Theory of Everything" became a
happy ticket for the actor to the main roles.
Jay Kay Simmons, who played Terence Fletcher in the psychological drama Obsession, was named Best Supporting Performer. The project was about a young student from whom the tyrannical teacher decided to make a brilliant musician. On this basis, they had some disagreements, but in the finale music united hearts. Jay Kay Simmons cannot be called a person of world scale. The artist has not so many famous roles - except that the role of Gaza Pankeyka in "Games of gentlemen."
2014 year
The most discussed persons in March 2014 were the actors who received the Oscar. The list was opened by Matthew McConaughey, who performed Ron Woodruff at the Dallas Buyers Club. The film turned out to be scandalous and opened the curtain, which hid the lives of people with AIDS. In addition, the picture is biographical, since it was shot on the basis of real events.
McConaughey surprised his fans with a similar role, because for her, the artist had to lose more than 2 kg and get rid of his pumped muscles. The award for the supporting role was taken by Jared Leto, who in the same film played a homosexual dying from an immunodeficiency virus. At the finish line, for the sake of victory, the actors had to beat such celebrities as Christian Bale, Leonardo DiCaprio, Bradley Cooper and John Hill.
2013 year
At the 85th ceremony, held at the Dolby Theater, the palm was given to Daniel Day-Lewis, who got the main role in Spielberg’s biographical picture. The film tells about the time in the life of the 16th president of the United States, when he enjoyed the greatest popularity: the end of the civil war was just nearing and the law on the prohibition of slavery was passed. Prior to this, Day-Lewis has received an Oscar already twice: for participating in the tapes “My Left Foot” and “Oil”.
In America, the artist is quite famous and is called almost one of the greatest performers of our time. Daniel is an ardent admirer of the Stanislavsky system.
The second prize was taken by Christoph Waltz, who played King Schulz in “Django Unchained”. The creation of Quentin Tarantino was nominated for several more awards. The cast also included Leonardo DiCaprio and Samuel L. Jackson. Christoph Waltz of all participants was the least known. Although admirers of Tarantino’s work can remember him by the role of the cruel SS Standartenfuhrer in Inglourious Basterds.
2012 year
At the 2012 ceremony, Natalie Portman presented the award for the lead role to Jean Dujardin, who starred in 2011 in the black and white film "The Artist". The film surprised the European audience in order, since it was a voluntary step a century ago: the director Michel Hazanavicius shot a silent colorless picture without any special effects. Romantic melodrama narrated about a funny story that happened with a silent movie star. George Valentine once helped a young statistician make a stunning career in Hollywood. At the most difficult moment for him, Peppy Miller answered the same thing and returned her old friend to a big movie.
Christopher Plummer took the second award of the best actor for performing a supporting character in the tragicomedy "Beginners". Plummer is also famous for his roles in the films 12 Monkeys, Treasure of the Nation, and Mind Games.
2011 year
At the 2011 ceremony, awards were distributed for the achievements of the actors in 2010. The creators and participants of three projects, the Black Swan, The King Says, and The Social Network, took many statuettes.
The best actor was Colin Firth, who played King George VI in the tragicomedy “The King Speaks.” The artist managed to get around Javier Bardem and Jesse Eisenberg. The award for a successful supporting role was taken away by the famous Christian Bale: critics were impressed by his game in the sports drama "The Fighter".
2010 year
Are there any other Hollywood actors who received an Oscar? The list by year is increasing by two new names. In 2009, Jeff Bridges (star of the movie “Crazy Heart”) and Christoph Waltz (star of the movie “Inglourious Basterds”) entered their cinema history.
2009 year
Before the 2009 ceremony, not all actors who received the Oscar survived. The list was replenished with the winner who received the award posthumously. The figurine went to Heath Manager, who very originally embodied the role of the Joker on the screens in the production of Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight. The ceremony took place in February, and the actor was found dead in his apartment exactly a month before. It turned out that the last few years Ledger was sitting on tranquilizers and painkillers. Due to the unsuccessful mixing of drugs, the artist's lungs refused.
For the leading role in the drama "Harvey Milk" was awarded Sean Penn. For him, this figurine was the second.
2008 year
The list of actors who received an Oscar for the lead role included a year earlier Daniel Day-Lewis and Javier Bardem. Daniel excelled on the set of the epic drama Oil. He had to compete with stars such as George Clooney, Johnny Depp, Tommy Lee Jones and Viggo Mortensen.
Javier Bardem played Anton Chigura in the thriller of the Coen brothers “Old Men Here Doesn’t Have a Place”. The tape received 8 nominations for an Oscar, and won four.
2007 year
On February 25, 2007, both nominees and actors who received the Oscar were invited to the next ceremony. The list of applicants for the award was announced by the host Ellen Degeneres and her star assistants.
It turned out that the best male role was played by Forest Whitaker in the historical drama "The Last King of Scotland." Whitaker is also known for his roles in the TV series North and South, the drama Good Morning Vietnam and the action movie Hostage 3.
The supporting role was brilliantly played by Alan Arkin in the film Little Miss Happiness. Arkin was nominated for an Oscar 4 times: in the 67th for his role in the comedy “The Russians are coming!”, In the 69th for his role in the film “The Heart of a Lone Hunter”. After the victory in 2007, there was still a nomination for participating in the film "Operation Argo".
Soviet and Russian cinema figures also had the opportunity to hold a figurine in their hands, but this was a long time ago. Who are they, Russian actors who received the Oscar?
The list is limited to only 4 names, and then we are talking about directors, not performers. But by a lucky chance, three of the concurrent winners are also actors. These are the following persons.
1. Sergey Bondarchuk represented at the ceremony the Soviet Union in 1968 with the painting “War and Peace”. In the same tape, the director and actor had the chance to play Pierre Bezukhov.
2. The Japanese Akira Kurosawa in the 75th year received the Oscar for the picture of co-production with the USSR - Dersu Uzala.
3. Vladimir Menshov, who successfully combines the acting and directing professions, won in 1981 with the picture "Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears."
4. The success of their Soviet colleagues in 1994 was repeated by Nikita Mikhalkov with his drama Burnt by the Sun.
