Demi Moore wins Golden Globes for ‘The Substance’, Sebastian Stan takes home for ‘A Different Man’
Best supporting actor in a musical or comedy for Stan and Moore wins best actress in a comedy or musical
Beverly Hills: The Golden Globes, which host Nikki Glaser introduced as “Ozempic’s biggest night,” dished out awards Sunday for Demi Moore in the body horror film “The Substance,” Sebastian Stan for “A Different Man” and the genre-shifting trans musical “Emilia Pérez.”
In a ceremony that offered few surprises early, one shocker was Moore‘s win for best actress in a comedy or musical. Her comeback performance in “The Substance,” about a Hollywood star who resorts to an experimental process to regain her youth, landed the 62-year-old Moore her first Globe — a victory that came over the heavily favoured Mikey Madison of “Anora.”
“I’m just in shock right now. I’ve been doing this a long time, like over 45 years, and this is the first thing I’ve ever won as an actor,” said Moore, who was last nominated by the Globes in 1991 for “Ghost.” “Thirty years ago, I had a producer tell me that I was a popcorn actress.”
Best supporting actor in a musical or comedy went to Sebastian Stan for another movie about physical transformation: “A Different Man,” in which Stan plays a man with a deformed face who’s healed. Stan, who was also nominated for playing Donald Trump in “The Apprentice,” noted that both films were hard to get made.
“These are tough subject matters but these films are real and they’re necessary,” said Stan. “But we can’t be afraid and look away.”
