"This is great, Madigan told the crowd at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood. The 75-year-old admitted she was a bit flummoxed and that her legs were shaking from winning the award. But she gave a shoutout to the women she was up against for the award, as well as thanked Warner Bros., Weapons director Zach Cregger, and her daughter."
"But the most important is my beloved Ed, she said, which drew a round of applause from the crowd. He's been with me forever, and that's a long ass time, and none of this wouldn't mean anything if he wasn't by my side."
Amy Madigan won the Best Supporting Actress award at the 98th Academy Awards for her performance in Weapons. At 75 years old, this marked her first Oscar win, nearly 40 years after her initial nomination in 1985 for Twice in a Lifetime. Madigan was the betting favorite heading into the ceremony with odds of -120. She competed against Teyana Taylor, Wunmi Mosaku, Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas, and Elle Fanning. During her acceptance speech at the Dolby Theatre, Madigan expressed emotion and gratitude toward her husband Ed Harris, the film's director Zach Cregger, Warner Bros., and her daughter. Host Conan O'Brien opened the ceremony with jokes about President Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein.
