Adrien Brody has two Oscars, but he still regrets turning down The Lord of the Rings. A missed chance that still lingers in his mind.

From first-time Oscar winner Mikey Madison to Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo’s surprise opening, there were several memorable moments from the 2025 Academy Awards. But if there’s one thing that will go down in the history books,

Adrien Brody has clinched his second Oscar for best actor, winning at Sunday’s 97th Academy Awards for his role as a visionary Hungarian-Jewish architect in “The Brutalist.”

Adrien Brody’s “gross” move at the Oscars stuck with viewers on Sunday. He won best actor for “The Brutalist” in the second win of his career. But some fans said Brody tainted his golden moment by spitting out his gum and tossing it to girlfriend Georgina Chapman as he took the stage for his long-winded acceptance speech.

Brody twice demanded that the orchestra stop trying to play him off so he could continue talking for a record-breaking 5-plus minutes.

Two-time Oscar winner Adrien Brody knows he 'made the longest Oscars speech in history.' He celebrated the unexpected milestone on Tuesday with even more words.

It is the second time he has triumphed in the category, this time for his performance in the epic “The Brutalist.”

Brody's acceptance speech exceeded the typical time limit and the play-off music began to roll, except The Brutalist actor wasn't having any of it.

Adrien Brody's second Best Actor Oscar has made history, and maybe now he will reach the same level of fame that he should have had in 2003.
